An iron railway bridge that crosses Mill Creek immediately east of Kentville. Originally a wooden bridge built in 1868, it was replaced by a plate girder span, built by the Dominion Bridge Company of Lachine, Quebec, delivered to the DAR Kentville Yard in mid November 1891 and installed soon after.[1]
