Old Mill Bridge
This bridge is both beautiful and historically significant. Built in 1916, it is a concrete arch bridge with a stone facing so that to a casual viewer it looks like a stone arch bridge. However, it is indeed a concrete arch bridge and looking underneath the bridge, the concrete of the arch ring can be seen. It was designed by Frank Barber who was also associated with the firm of Barber and Young. Barber was a leader in the introduction of concrete into bridge construction in Ontario.
