Constructed in 1876 by the Wrought Iron Bridge Company this one lane bridge crossed Pine Creek with it's 103' span. After the lumber company expanded it's work area the bridge became unused as there was no place for the traffic to go with the west end of the road blocked by fences.

You will need to reach the bridge by taking Messerall Road off of Enterprise Road a short distance out of East Titusville. The dirt road can be a bit rough so please take it easy.

Here is another link with even more information on the bridge. (visit link)
