Sandy Stream rises in Montville, runs through Unity, and is spanned by
six bridges, namely: The Douglass, Hussey, Farwell, Village, Moulton,
and Outlet bridges. There are several minor bridges over small streams.
The first bridge at the village which the writer can remember was a
frame bridge similar to a barn, but without a roof; the posts were
about fifteen feet high, not boarded. After that was a bridge with
X-work sides about six feet high, and a partition through the middle.
The iron bridge at the village was built in 1907. The committee in
charge of the building consisted of W. H. J. Moulton, Frank Bartlett,
George E. Grant, Amander Rackliff, E. T. Reynolds, Jacob L. Ames and D.
R. McGray. The abutments were built by John Brown of Benton Station.
The cost of the bridge was $3500.00.
