eureka schoolhouse and baltimore covered bridge印象

This little schoolhouse is must see on your travels to Springfield. 1st and foremost it is a throwback to a simpler time when there was 1 room schoolhouses. Desks are still there along with books, pencils, maps, etc. There is also lots of information about the actual schoolhouse on the inside and out. The covered bridge and the grounds surrounding are beautiful to look at too. There is also travel information available too located on the property.

I have a fondness for both one-room schoolhouses and covered bridges. What could be better than to have both in the same location? Both had been moved to their current location in an effort to preserve them. There is a little pull off area with limited parking at the site. There is also a visitor's information center on the grounds.

We were in Springfield for 2 days but the schoolhouse wasn't open for visitors while we were there. There is a covered bridge beside the schoolhouse that has been moved to that location - looks a little strange since there is no water under it.

I drove a bit out of my way to see this historic schoolhouse. By the time I arrived, it was closed. Fortunately, I was able to get a peek inside through the windows. It was a bit disappointing to realize that the schoolhouse had been moved to its current location along a busy roadway from its original site as well as to realize that it was originally painted to look very different from the way it now looks. This detracted from the overall experience for me. That being said, it is still the oldest remaining school house in Vermont and worth a look.As was the Eureka Schoolhouse, the Baltimore Covered Bridge had been moved to this location from its original spot. Again, this seems unnecessary, but it is a lovely little bridge and affords a nice place for photos.
