The Ashuelot Covered Bridge is a historic wooden covered bridge over the Ashuelot River on Bolton Road, just south of its intersection with NH 119 in Ashuelot, New Hampshire, an unincorporated village of Winchester. It is a Town lattice truss bridge, built in 1864-65, consisting of two spans with a total length of . The total width of the bridge is , and has a central roadway and sidewalks (measuring 3'10" in width) on each side. The bridge rests on stone abutments and a central pier. The abutments have been reinforced with concrete since the bridge was built, and the central pier has been protected by a metal breakwater. The bridge passes 11'7" over the water. One unusual feature of this bridge is that its sides are not fully sheathed, the usual means by which the truss elements are protected from the elements. Instead, the bridge roof is extended to provide long eaves, and the sides are sheathed to the height of the walkway handrails.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=NRHP nomination for Ashuelot Covered Bridge )〕 The bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1981.〔 ==See also== *List of New Hampshire covered bridges *List of bridges on the National Register of Historic Places in New Hampshire *National Register of Historic Places listings in Cheshire County, New Hampshire 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ashuelot Covered Bridge」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
