I'm not sure what the significance of the 1913 is. The old bridge was
around long before that. Perhapse the top layer was built around that time.

This is the original upper bridge  when the road made an abrupt  right turn
at the eastern end and then you can see that it made a hairpin turn  to switch back
toward the four corners where the Warner farm sat. When the bridge was built on top
of this one the road was raised and rerouted strait up the hill.

The old lower bridge, later replaced by foot bridge when the road
was rerouted.
