[MassHistPres] Dry Laid Stone Bridges

[Sara Wermiel]

A good place to contact for historic bridge advice is the Cultural Resources
Unit of MassDOT, Highway Division. They maintain the state's historic bridge
inventory and review public work that impacts these bridges and other
historic resources.

Subject: [MassHistPres] Dry Laid Stone Bridges

 

There are three dry laid granite stone bridges on the Hopkinton -
Southborough town line that date back to 1840. These bridges are adjacent to
the Southborough T station and are in good condition but may need remedial
work. Is there anyone that knows of a consultant or stone mason who can
inspect these structures to confirm their condition and assist in developing
restoration criteria?

 

Photos and site plans are available upon request.

 

Feel free to contact me below at any time.
