Illustrated New Bridge in Acton on slate desk plaque

New Bridge

Bring a little Acton home.

Slate Desk Plaque · 11 × 7 inches

Between opening a book and making a few notes, a small display can give the eye somewhere else to go. South Acton's New Bridge puts a trolley route above railway tracks, bringing two ways of getting around into one small scene.

South Acton's New Bridge carried a trolley over railroad tracks. The postcard preserved by the Maynard Historical Society shows two kinds of transport sharing one village landscape. This is a road and trolley overpass; the water crossings elsewhere in the valley have their own stories.

The overpass offers a particular South Acton story about routes crossing, useful for someone who enjoys the working details of village transport. Make room beside the pen cup or books, keeping the small display within reach of an ordinary day's work at home.
