The 1842 Hammond Covered Bridge is a Town lattice covered bridge spanning Otter Creek in Pittsford, Rutland County, Vermont. The bridge was built by Asa Norse and originally carried Kendall Hill Road, which now passes just to its south. 

The Hammond Covered Bridge is located north of the Pittsford Village Center, spanning the creek in an east-west orientation. It is a single-span Town lattice structure, with trusses 138 feet in length, and a roadway width of 18 feet. The eastern abutment is built of stone and marble slabs and is now topped by a concrete pad, while the western abutment is marble-topped by concrete. The bridge has been reinforced with laminated beams mounted below the trusses. The exterior is finished in vertical board siding, which extends around to the portal faces and a short way inside. There are square openings providing light to the interior of the structure, which is capped by a corrugated metal roof.

In 1927, a flood swept the bridge 1.5 miles downstream but left the structure intact. Since it was still functional, the bridge was placed on barrels and transported back to its original location; it is now called "the bridge that went on a voyage". The bridge was later bypassed by a steel and concrete bridge on Kendall Hill Road and is closed to vehicle traffic. It was acquired by the state in 1961, which is responsible for its maintenance.

Of the over 500 covered bridges that were built in the state of Vermont, as of 2019, only 104 remain.

Length of largest span: 138 ft.
Total length: 139 ft.
Deck width: 17.8 ft.
