Bissell Bridge is a covered bridge that runs over Mill Brook. The slow-moving water beneath the bridge comes from a nearby waterfall. Though the bridge has been closed down for rehabilitation, this is not the original covered bridge that stood here. AS the first covered bridge in America during the 20th Century, this bridge is now part of the National Registry of Historic Places. Visitors to the area will want to see the former glory of the era of covered bridges. Walk through the bridge and gaze down into the waters through one of the open windows. While you’re here, consider the short trip to the Henry W. Bissell house.
