Golden Hill Bridge is a historic bridge on Golden Hill Road over the Housatonic River in Lee, Massachusetts. The pony truss bridge was built c. 1885 for a cost of about $1,100. Most of this cost was paid to the Berlin Iron Bridge Co. for the truss. The bridge is one of only five Berlin Co. bridges in the Berkshires, and is the only known surviving bridge to implement modifications to the pony truss design patented by William O. Douglas in 1885.[2] The bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.[1] It is closed to traffic for safety reasons.[2]
