Durgin Bridge
Built by Jacob Berry of North Conway, this bridge is the fourth to span the Swift River here since 1820. Freshets in 1844, 1865, and 1869 destroyed the first three. The bridge is named for James Holman Durgin (1815-73) who ran a grist mill near it; drove a stage from Sandwich to Farmington; and was a link in the underground slave railroad, Sandwich to Conway. Foss Flats Rd., 1½ miles N. of NH-113 or Fellow's Hill Rd. 1½ miles E. of NH-113A, NE of North Sandwick, Carroll County New Hampshire
