The
Covered Bridge was built in 1857 over Middle Fork of Salt
River. The builders were Joseph C. Elliott and son William B.
Elliott. The bridge was a narrow Burr Arch structure, 100 feet
long. It was restored in June 1952 by Roy Power and a strict
weight and vehicle restriction was placed on it. In August
1958 the bridge was swept away by flood waters. Present bridge
rests partly on stone foundation of the old bridge.
