Thanks to Joshua Purdy for visiting and photographing this bridge.
This attractive pony truss adds much beauty to its surrounding environment. The bridge features built-up members including v-laced vertical members, and diagonals utilizing battens. A concrete deck with curb is present, although this curb has broken up at one end. Although bent up, this bridge does still retain lattice railings as well. Overall this is an excellent example pony truss technology from the first couple decades of the 20th century. It appears to be in decent condition, and as such, routine maintenance should keep this historic structure around for many years to come.
