Description
This is an old, stone bridge, (early 1900's), in Colt State Park in Bristol, RI - or as we called it when I was young, Colt's Drive. That is because it was Mr. Colt's drive to his farm. While Colt had that beautiful home in town, Linden Place, a few miles away was his large farm - over 450 acres and this house was called Casino - I don't know why. The bridge was built for a single horse-drawn carriage. When you came to this bridge all drivers were on the honor system. In my youth, you had to let the cars on the opposite side go before your side could. Simpler, and more polite, times.
