CategoryDartmouth-Sunapee New Hampshire Scenic
DescriptionThe state suggested closing the bridge in May 1979, but the town reduced the posted weight limit from six to three tons. It was rehabilitated by the state in 1980 at a cost of $43,000. The project was funded, in part, with a federal Historic Preservation Fund matching grant from the National Park Service of the U.S. Department of the Interior through the New Hampshire Division of Historical Resources. The bridge was then reposted for a six ton limit. The Corbin Bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places. On May 24, 1993, the Corbin Bridge was destroyed by fire. At the time of the publication, the town of Newport expressed the intention to replace the structure with another covered bridge.
