It was built following the Ashland dam break of February 1886 which washed away the previous bridges. The bridge served the millyard of the Ashland Cotton Company, in the Jewett City section of Griswold. The bridge was 65 feet (20 m) long and crossed a millrace on a skew angle. The Ashland Mill was damaged by arson in March 1995 and subsequently torn down, but the bridge itself remained. By 1999, the town deemed the bridge unsafe and closed it, and by February 1999, the bridge was moved to a vacant parking lot and was replaced with a new bridge. The bridge was added to the state of Connecticut historic register and it was later added to the National Register of Historic Places in April 1999. It was removed from the National Register in February 2016.Connecticut#USAPOINT(-71.978080749512 41.605525970459)269279591886990004072016-02-021999-04-01Ashland Mill BridgeAshland Mill BridgeBerlin Iron Bridge Company-71.9780807495117241.60552777777778 -71.9780833333333341.60552597045898A map showing a birds-eye view of the Ashland Mill area, with the bridge on the left side of the image.99000407The Ashland Mill Bridge was a lenticular pony truss bridge over the Pachaug River in Griswold, Connecticut that was built in 1886 by the Berlin Iron Bridge Company.
