A long, bright red wooden covered bridge with a shingled gable roof spans a small rocky stream, its white-boarded portal resting on a stone abutment at the right. A small horizontal window opening breaks the red siding near the entrance, and bare and russet-leaved trees frame the structure against a clear blue sky. The scene is a classic autumn view of a New England-style town lattice truss covered bridge, a form widely built in the 19th century to protect timber trusses from weather.
