Description
Lower Saucon Northampton county Pa. USA. The Meadows Road Bridge is located on Meadows Road just south of Hellertown. It spans the Saucon Creek. Built in 1858, it is one of only two examples of a four span stone arch bridge built between 1826 and 1921 that exist in today in Northampton County. Stone arch bridge construction predates the covered bridges and was the only technology available to the early settlers for longer and more permanent spans prior to the introduction of metal truss bridge technology.
