Poor Belmont County, Ohio. They lost their very last covered bridge in 1953. Apparently their neighbors in Fairfield County are very generous, as they donated this fine bridge. Originally built in 1891, the bridge was moved to this location on Ohio University's Belmont County campus in 1975. It is open only to pedestrian traffic.
Current Condition of Bridge: restored
Description of Covered Bridge: It has trusses and it's painted red and it's about 50 feet long. Not sure what else to say!
Year Built: 1891/01/01
Location (Road - City - State - Country): Just off I-70 on the Ohio University Belmont Campus
Web Address: Not listed
Parking (If not at the bridge):: Not listed
