Lyndhurst Bridge
Lyndhurst bridge is reportedly the oldest surviving bridge in Ontario, Canada, having been completed in 1857.[1][2] It is located in the community of Lyndhurst, in the township of Leeds and the Thousand Islands. The bridge is a three span stone arch bridge.[2] The bridge, constructed of local sandstone, was designed by John Donald Roddick, a local mill owner, and was built by Miles Fulford and Simon Ransom.[3] In 1986 the bridge was altered by the addition of an interior frame of load-bearing reinforced concrete inside the deck system.[2] It carries Lyndhurst Road in a single lane across the Gananoque River.
