Conway Covered Bridge

This bridge crosses the Swift River just before it enters the Saco River at Conway in New Hampshire. Constructed in 1869 it replaced the original structure that was destroyed in a flood in that year. It is 129 feet long and 21 feet wide.

There are sixty-six covered bridges in New Hampshire and six of them are in the North Conway and the surrounding area. All were built in the 1800’s and all but two of them are still in operation. These bridges were covered to help protect the wooden structure from the weather.
