Ithiel Town -

There exist several different types of covered bridge - the one depicted in the illustration refers to the town lattice truss type of bridge which was created by Ithiel Town. It's one of the more common types of bridge seen throughout New England because of the reliability and ease of construction for relatively untrained woodworkers, making it a very approachable design for rural farmers in Vermont to make.
