The Nelson Hollow Bridge (Mill Brook #0.5) is the oldest covered bridge in New Brunswick, Canada. It is the only remaining covered bridge in Northumberland County, New Brunswick.[1][2]

The bridge, which was first constructed in 1870 and rebuilt in 1899, is 24.5 m long and spans Betts Mill Brook, about 4 km west of Doaktown, New Brunswick.[3] In 1977 it was restored by the Doaktown Historical Society. It is one of only two New Brunswick bridges having a cottage style roof.[4]

The bridge is no longer in service, but is provincially owned, and maintained by the New Brunswick Department of Transportation.
