I am accustomed to visiting through truss bridges and having clearance signs placed on top of plaques by agencies who could care less about historic bridges. However I find it strange that a historical society would plaster their sign right on top of the plaque. Dean and Westbrook plaques are among the most unusual and beautiful bridge plaques ever encountered. They should not be covered up!
Interpretive signage that identifies a historic bridge is important, but it is clear that such a sign could have been placed someplace more tasteful.

Looks like a Dean and Westbrook Phoenix Column bridge to me.
