Thanks to Robert Hague for correctly identifying the photo. It appears the description in the MACRIS document is incorrect and this is not a roadway bridge.
Also thanks to Robert Hague for taking the photos showing the area as of approx 1990 (2nd photo) and 30 July 2020.

I am 99% sure this picture is not labeled correctly. It is not a bridge on W. Hartland Rd. that goes over the Hubbard River, but a footbridge on the dam that once created a pond on the east side of W. Hartland Rd.for swimming and recreation. If you look closely, I think it is clear that it is a footbridge. If you want I can send a link (will need an email address) that has 2 pictures, one when this was a pond and the other after they drained the pond down to a little stream. This dam is located across from the former site of a multi-stalled garage built and used by the CCCC.
