Notes
  • Significance: This three-span stone arch bridge represents the long tradition of stone arch bridge-building in Pennsylvania. The bridge was once a crossing on the Berks and Dauphin Turnpike, and it is near the historic location of the Union Canal. The bridge was probably built during construction of the turnpike in 1816-17, and was reconstructed in 1919. Its continued use confirms the importance of the transportation corridor along the Tutpehocken Creek.
