Bridge Gun Company and Bridge Gun Works were trade names owned by Shapleigh Hardware Co of St Louis. The guns were made in Belgium by H. Pieper and Anciens Etablissment Pieper and in the US by Crescent, Stevens, and Harrington & Richardson. There's a good chance that a single shot would be a Stevens Model 94.
Bridge Gun Co was a tradename sold through Shapleigh Hardware Co. Manufacturers included H. Pieper and Anciens Etablissment Pieper in Belgium, as well as Crescent Fire Arms, Harrington & Richardson Arms, and J. Stevens Arms.

Sold by Shapleigh Hardware in Missouri. Probably made by Stevens, although other companies also made Bridge Gun Co guns.
Not very precisely. Bridge Gun Co was a trade name distributed by Shapleigh Hardware of St Louis. Single shots marked "Black Prince Bridge Gun Co" were made by Crescent Fire Arms (1893-1930), J. Stevens Arms & Tool Co (1886-1915), and Harrington & Richardson Arms Co (1872-1985). Double barrel guns with outside hammers marked "Bridge Gun Co. Black Prince Armory Steel Belgium" were made by Anciens Etablissment Pieper in Leige, Belgium (1905-1957), and hammerless doubles marked Bridge Black Prince were made by Crescent Fire Arms and J. Stevens Arms (1920-c.1948). If you can find that your gun was made by Stevens, the Stevens historian may be able to find an approximate date of manufacture.
Most like a utility grade store brand shotgun made at the turn of the century or there about. Try internet searches, the library, gun shows, gun shops.
Nothing in particular. Just decoration.
