The 1891 Coheelee Creek Covered Bridge near Hilton, Georgia in Early County.

The construction of this 121-foot bridge at McDonald's Ford was first authorized by the county in 1883, though construction was delayed until 1891. It was completed in just four months by J.W. Baughman and thirty-six workers as a modification of the "queen post" truss design. The trusses have a horizontal cross piece extending across a center post flanked by two compression timbers slanting down and outwards with a set of iron slanting down and inwards. The concrete abutments were added in 1958. This bridge is the southernmost covered bridge remaining in Georgia.

It has two 54-foot spans and rests upon three abutments.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.
