Arrow ..... this olde bridge?

Cannot find any history record on this old bridge that crosses the large brook that flows down from Upper Meadow Farm down through Lower Meadow Farm, then under Wagon Wheel Trail and down into Meredith Bay.

Before this bridge was built, it must have been a winding circuitous route down Meredith Neck to get to the Cattle Landing town dock and then by boat out to the Bear Island House hotel. Could be the current detour down Wagon Wheel Trail is similar to the old route from before the bridge was built, or something. Meredith Neck has all sorts of hills, valleys, and wetland areas that had to create road travel issues with the old dirt road traveled by mules, horses, farmers, tourists and wagons ....... yeeee-haaaaa ...... get on up this here hill ..... you lazy donkey! ......
