    The Henninger Farm Covered Bridge, also known as Dauphin County Bridge No. 43, is a historic covered bridge spanning Wiconisco Creek in Washington Township, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania.  It was built about 1850 and is a single-span bridge with an overall length of 72 feet. The deck has a width of 16 feet and the clearance is 11 feet. The trussing system is a combination of Burr and a double-arch truss.

     

    Also called Stroup Bridge, this is the last covered bridge in Dauphin County standing in its original location.  It was reconstructed in 2003 after a fire. In the early 1970s, Henniger was one of six covered bridges on the Wiconisco Creek and one of nine in Dauphin County. The 1972 Agnes flood destroyed all but three of the county bridges.  

     

    Posted to the National Register of Historic Places on December 8, 1978.
