This single lane steel truss bridge sits on what is considered the symbolic border of Lennox and Addington County and South Frontenac County. However, the bridge is actually entirely in Frontenac County and until 2014 the bridge was jointly owned by both counties. It is now solely owned by South Frontenac county.
The bridge allows Petworth Rd to cross the Napanee River. In 2013 the bridge was struck by a truck and required extensive repairs ($92,000-$130,000). Between 1911-1919 the bridge had a steam engine accident as well.
