Euharlee covered bridge

Euharlee Covered Bridge is a Town lattice truss design structure over Euharlee Creek in northwest Georgia. At least two structures across the river predated the present bridge. This bridge, built in 1886 was designed by Horace King, the freeman builder who used a truss design patented by Ithiel Town known as Town lattice. However, King was too ill to be involved in building the structure. Credit for building the bridge goes to son Washington King and another man. Each piece of the bridge was pre-cut and numbered before installation; the bridge was then assembled "in place." Euharlee Covered Bridge carried traffic for 90 years. In 1976 the structure was replaced by a concrete bridge on County Rd. 30.
