Bennington County is the home of a total of 12 covered bridges. Of this number, 5 are historic bridges and 7 are non-traditional bridges.
Two of the historic covered bridges are replacements of the original bridges. The Chiselville Covered Bridge is supported by steel I-Beams and a center pier.
Some of the non-traditional bridges are difficult to find. Some are private. And then again, some appear to be historic covered bridges.
The Covered Bridge Museum bridge is not a bridge at all. It houses the Covered Bridge Museum in Bennington.
Select the map below and check the details for each bridge for complete information and locations.

For the convenience of our Bridge-Watchers, here are the Bridge-Watch checklists in two formats. As you perform the bridge inspections, you can use either an online form or a printed form. The online form will be submitted automatically, while the printed form must be mailed in. Either option is acceptable
