Fitch's Covered Bridge was built in 1870 by James Frazier and James Warren over the West Branch of the Delaware River east of Delhi. The single span uses a Town lattice truss, with paired planks pinned by wooden trunnels forming the web. The bridge was moved upstream to its present site around 1885 and later rehabilitated in 2001. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.
