The third bridge that I visited here in Cornish was the Blow-Me-Down Bridge. It gets its name because it spans a deep gorge on the Blow-Me-Down Brook.
It was a little more challenging to photograph. The steepness of the gorge below and the heavy brush growth made it too risky to try to go down into the gorge to make images from the side showing the span of the bridge.
The property owner on one side of the bridge dissuaded photographers with one sign that said “no parking” and another that said trespassers would be shot and those that survived would be shot again. So much for Yankee hospitality. I ended up parking in some weeds on the other side of the bridge.
There is not a lot of history noted about this bridge. It was built in 1877 for $528 and is another bridge built by James Tasker.

You need a drone to get those side views from over the river. >grin<
Ha ha ha. You may be right.
Hello Chris… I’ve been on a bit of a Social Media break. But was happy to come back and see you sharing yet another beautiful covered bridge.
Sounds like the Wild, Wild West with those signs you speak about!
Thanks for sharing and Happy Sunday my friend!
Cool pattern on those braces!
Yeah, I like those too. Thanks, Teri.
I have one covered bridge post to do next week (or later this week) and then we must go hunting!
Looking forward to it. I’m taking this weekend off but am planning a trip next weekend.
The title of this bridge is quite interesting to say the least. Thank you for risking safety to take these great photos. Have a great day.😊
My pleasure. Yeah, I’d love to know the origin of the name. Thank you and same to you.
Survivors would be shot again…wow. Part of me really wants to test that out….. You in? 😀
Sure. I’ll wait by the car with my cell phone ready to call 911 for you buddy.
haha! A true friend!! 😀
the owner seems such a lovely person ahah!
Ha ha ha. A real people person.
Yet again beautiful captures.
I nominated you for a blog award. It is up to you whether you want to participate or not; here is the link to the same: https://thesoulsurge.wordpress.com/2020/08/02/liebster-and-ideal-inspiration-blogger-awards/
Love your work!
Thank you so much, Vanya, for both the kind words and the nomination. I really appreciate it.
You are most welcome!! 🙂
The person with the signs sounds charming ☹️ yikes! You were brave to bring us these! Happy you are in one piece and the images are beautiful! Take good care Chris
Ah you know, my guess is his bark was worse than his bite. It takes all kinds. I parked elsewhere and let him be. You take care too, Sandra. 😊
I really like the repeating patterns in these bridges too. I love the shot facing the bridge with the light shining thru!
I like repeating patterns too. The bridges are full of them. You have to look but there are interesting patterns to be found.
Sunday night, already? Back at it tomorrow. I hope your weekend was a good one.
I know, Sunday already! I feel the same way you do. I can’t complain. Stayed close to home but made time for fun. I hope your weekend was nice too. Take good care Chris!
I love the wood pegs! I think this will be even more beautiful when the “new” supports look a little more worn. Glad you were able to stay safe.
Thank you. I love the wood pegs, also. The new supports look out of place but it’s good to know that someone is maintaining this bridge. Have a great day.
Those that survived would be shot again..😂
And I really like those repeating patterns, Chris. Take care.
Yes, I should have taken a photo of the sign. Some people put up strange signs. Repeating patterns make great subjects for photos. I try to look for them. Thank you. You take care also. 😊
Gorgeous bridges and images 💯
Thank you, Sohair.
Welcome ☘️
That property owner is probably a nice little old lady with dozens of cats and fluffy slippers. 😉 But I wouldn’t want you to risk it – better safe than sorry!
