Thanks to Rick McOmber for visiting and photographing this bridge.
This tiny two-panel structure is one of the smallest bridges to be featured on this website. Despite its small size, this is a complete, traditional truss bridges. It features a wooden deck. V-laced railings are present on the bridge. There is also v-lacing under the top chord and end posts. The verticals have lattice. A plaque is present on the bridge showing the builder and date. The connection at the top chord and hip vertical features the unusual bolted diagonal that is unique to the Wrought Iron Bridge Company and its pony trusses.
It is unclear whether this is the bridge's original location. As small as it is, the bridge seems too big for its abutments, overshooting them a bit in length.
