Notes
  • Significance: This filled-spandrel stone arch bridge is distinguished by its 39' span over Mill Creek with an impressive 32'10" clear height. Unusual corbels at the spring line, used to support temporary centering give evidence of the challenges faced in its construction. The bridge represents the legacy of William V. Ingham, the second generation of a family that dominated Wilkes-Barre public works in the 19th century...
