Under the wooded slopes of Mill Mountain (alt. 2485) the road winds into STARK (alt. 968, town pop. 329), 20.7 m., a tiny hamlet on the banks of the Upper Ammonoosuc, notable for its fine setting, its old Covered Bridge, and the conspicuous cliff (R) known as the Devil's Slide.

The Covered Bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. The bridge has undergone a few upgrades during its life time. Originally built 1857 or 1862, the center pier was washed away in 1890 or 95 (record keeping in the 1800's must not have been a priority), again in 1946 to prop up a sagging bridge with a temporary center pier and finally in 1954 a make over.
