"Unique"

edit

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. ~ Maltrópa loquace 01:26, 4 June 2019 (UTC)Reply

Someone who has properly studied the matter could answer more precisely but I was able to find this one saying a Dry stone arch is unusual because it requires greater precision, but far from unique. Jim.henderson (talk) 18:57, 6 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
