An amazing capture of what I take to be a covered bridge. I'm quite impressed by the contrast between the metal elements and the wooden one. Congrats on the POTD.

Hi Wayne, Thank you;covered bridges were plentiful in this area,surely because of the protection they offered during our harsh winters.Nowadays,few survive and most,as this one get some modern and much lighter cladding which relieves some of the stress on the aging foundations.Salutations-Laurent

Michael, You are right;the bridge retains its original wood structure and the modern metal cladding maintains its exterior charm.Thank you for the kind note. Salutations-Laurent
