Andrew Titcomb found a place in the back of his meadow for the Stoughton Bridge, when it was saved from the Weathersfield-Springfield flood control project. Now often called the Titcomb Bridge, it looks right at home fronting the farm woodlot.
Ed Barna adds some additional details: "The work of moving and restoring the bridge went partly to Milton Graton and Associates of Ashland, New Hampshire, and partly to local builder Neil Daniels." (Barna, E. (1996) Covered Bridges of Vermont. Woodstock, Vermont: The Countryman Press. pg. 132). The Covered Spans of Yesteryear website notes the bridge was moved in September 1959.
