The 1845 Flint Covered Bridge is located in northern Tunbridge, just south of the town line with Chelsea, carrying Bicknell Hill Road over the First Branch White River just east of Vermont Route 110 in Orange County. It is a single-span Queenpost truss bridge, 89 feet long, set on stone abutments that have been faced in concrete. It is 17.5 feet wide, with a roadway width of 15 feet (one lane). The trusses have been strengthened by iron rods descending from the diagonals, and laminated stringers have been added below the deck, with steel cables crisscrossed between the deck members to increase lateral stability. The sides and portal ends are finished in vertical board siding, and the bridge is covered by a gabled metal roof. It was rehabilitated in 1969.

The bridge is the oldest of Tunbridge's five bridges. It was given an extensive renovation in 1969, in which its exterior siding was replaced in a sympathetic manner to its original finish. Along with a bridge in Chelsea, the bridges in Tunbridge, each spanning the same river in a 7-mile stretch, represent one of the highest concentrations of historic covered bridges in the state. Also called the First Branch White River Bridge.

Length of largest span: 82 ft.
Total length: 88.9 ft.
Deck width: 14.8 ft.
Vertical clearance above deck: 8.2 ft.
