The extent of the uniqueness in Huddlestone Bridge's description as "unique in that the boulders are held together solely by gravity" is unclear; is it the only bridge in the Woods and Meadow to be so? in Central Park? globally (very unlikely considering the history of arches)? I didn't see a line directly referencing this in the citations given. ~ Maltrópaloquace01:26, 4 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
