The $50,000 grant will be used for the stone and concrete restoration of the bridge.
The Camden County Freeholder Board has approved the recommendations of the Open Space, Recreation, Farmland and Historical Preservation Trust Fund Advisory Committee to award the 2017 Historic Preservation Grants.
“A total of eight projects will benefit from this $315,000 investment from the Camden County Open Space, Recreation, Farmland and Historical Preservation Trust Fund,” said Camden County Freeholder Jeffrey L. Nash, liaison to the county’s Open Space Preservation Trust Fund Advisory Committee. “These historic structures not only tell the story of Camden County, they continue to serve the community as museums and cultural destinations.”
One of the eight projects will be the restoration of Bonnie’s Bridge in Cherry Hill. A $50,000 grant will be used for tone and concrete restoration at the pre-1795 bridge. The bridge is listed on the National Register of Historic Places
