A covered bridge was moved to Mill Race Park in Columbus, Indiana where it now serves as part of the road that loops through the park. The bridge was built in the 19th century and all the major members in this photo are original. Given when it was built, the posts and beams are probably oak or chestnut. The photo shows the intricate construction that was used to produce a bridge that, with maintenance, has survived for over a century.
