Gaspereau River No.2 (Burpee)

Long Creek No.1 (Starkey)

The Starkey Bridge is one of my favorites, so far.  It's a beauty to photograph with the expanse of water of Long Creek providing a reflecting pool.  I will go back in autumn sometime to get some pictures with the fall colors.  We just stopped by on a trip back from a meeting in Fredericton on a summer afternoon, and lucked out with the light and the relatively calm water surface.  The nearby water meadows reminded me of England.

I've included a couple of photos from the Provincial Archives to compare the rickety-looking old wooden approaches to the single span of the bridge.

The Queens County Heritage group attached this sign quite high up, so it was impossible to get a good angle to photograph it without a ladder.  I had the same problem at the Gaspereau River bridge.
