History and architectural features

Built circa 1860, this historic structure is a seventy-three-foot, Burr Truss-span that crosses the Buckwah Creek. The bridge incorporated elements of the Howe truss in its construction. A nearby restaurant, the "Covered Bridge Inn," takes its name from the bridge. In 2011, the bridge was damaged by a hit and run driver.
