Review:
The Pulp Mill Covered Bridge, also known as the Paper Mill Covered Bridge, is a lovely National Register of Historic Places-listed bridge crossing over Otter Creek between the cities of Middlebury and Weybridge, traveling along Seymour Street. The bridge, which was constructed in 1820, is one of only six remaining bridges of its kind in the United States and is Vermont's oldest preserved covered bridge, showcasing a unique Burr arch design and two lanes of three spans. It was restored to its historic condition in 2012 for the second time, featuring King posts with Burr arch design.
Today, it is the only bridge of its kind still carrying regular traffic and carries the distinction of being one of the United States' oldest bridges. Visitors can drive past and through the bridge throughout the year and enjoy excellent opportunities for historic architecture photography.
