Help us celebrate! The restoration of the W Townshend Stone Arch Bridge is Complete! Sunday November 3rd starting at 1:30 at the bridge on Back Windham Road.
Heartfelt thanks to all who helped bring this project to its successful conclusion:
- the neighbors of the bridge on Back Windham Road;
- the many town residents (and businesses serving them) who endured the long detour around the work site;
- the committed voters of the Town of Townshend;
- the many generous donors to the project;
