Bailey Island Bridge — Cribstone Bridge

Harpswell, ME

This unusual bridge is built from massive granite blocks stacked in an open crib-like pattern instead of a conventional solid foundation. Gaps between the stones allow tides to flow through while the heavy granite keeps the structure anchored between Bailey and Orr’s islands.
