The Samuel Morey Memorial Bridge is a historic bridge carrying New Hampshire Route 25A across the Connecticut River between Orford, New Hampshire and Fairlee, Vermont.
It rests on poured concrete abutments that have a light Art Deco or Moderne styling.
Wing walls recede from the abutments into the banks in three stepped sections.
This is in contrast to the Justice Harlan Fiske Stone Bridge joining Brattleboro, Vermont and Chesterfield, New Hampshire, which was built about the same time, and distributes the active load to its abutments.
[2] The bridge is named for Samuel Morey, an early inventor of steamships and resident of both Orford and Fairlee.
