No, it won't fall in because of flood or deterioration. Progress has come to this quiet and beautiful place, and the antiquated old stone bridge is about to be crushed by the steamroller of progress. A part of our past is about to be removed as though it never even existed. The stones fall one by one into the cold water below. The arch, the strength, the very backbone of the structure is slow to succumb.
Stones carefully cut and placed by skilled hands so long ago are carelessly tossed aside.
This was a nice bridge. She dies hard, but dies just the same. Once the arch is gone, the rest of the stones give way more easily. The main complaint against the old stone bridges is that they are too narrow for modern vehicles and farm equipment. They were, after all, built in the horse power days, but the deck of the bridge could have been widened.
