Comments:
This bridge was lost during the 1927 flood. A replica of it, known as the Robbins Nest Bridge (VT/45-12-18), was built about 100 yards upstream in 1962. This bridge was numbered 45-12-20 on Dick Roy's list, but had to be renumbered due to a conflict. Coordinates at an approximate location base on described relative location.
