Somerset Bridge

Built in 1620, this drawbridge connects the main island to Somerset Island.

It’s reputedly the smallest drawbridge in the world and is barely wide enough to permit the mast of a sailboat to pass through.

Nearby is a grassy area with a few picnic tables. While you’re there check out the view of Ely’s Harbour from the bridge and the old Bermudian cottage nearby.

As of summer 2008 the ferry no longer stops here.

The ferry also stops here. It's a great way to see the island.
