Lowes Bridge is a covered bridge in a rural part of Guilford, Maine. Built in 1857, this bridge was washed away by the flood of April 1, 1987. A modern covered bridge, patterned after the original, was built on the original abutments in 1990. The replacement was built to have a larger load-capacity and was raised in order to prevent damage from future flooding. Read more on Wikipedia
