The bridge was built about 1870, and is Grafton's last surviving 19th-century covered bridge. It is the shortest historic covered bridge in Windham County, and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.[1] Description and historyThe Kidder Covered Bridge is located about {{convert|0.3|mi|km}} south of the center of Grafton Village, on Kidder Hill Road. It is a single-span queenspost truss structure, with a total length of {{convert|66|ft|m}} and a total width of {{convert|15|ft|m}}, with a roadway {{convert|12|ft|m}} wide. It rests on abutments of stone that have been reinforced with concrete. The bridge is oriented at a skew to the river bed, with its trusses forming a parallelogram, 15° off rectangular. The exterior of the trusses is sheathed in vertical board siding, and it is covered by a metal roof. The siding is extended to the portals and gables, and a short way into the portal.[2] The original covered bridge was constructed circa 1870, and was the town's last 19th-century bridge until it was rebuilt in 1995. It is the county's only example of a queenspost truss bridge, and is one of a handful of covered bridges in the state built with a skew.[2] The bridge was replaced with a new wooden (covered) structure in April 1995.
