The stone, four-arch Kingston Bridge was built in 1798 to replace a wooden bridge at this location across the Millstone River, which was destroyed by George Washington's forces on January 3, 1777 after the Battle of Princeton, so that British forces under Lord Cornwallis could not follow.  The detail shows the coursed rubble construction.  The bottom left square shows the current girder bridge that now carries Route 27 across the river.  This bridge is featured in The Bridges of New Jersey, now available through internet booksellers and in bookstores.
