    The Bailey Covered Bridge in Pennsylvania was built in 1889 by the Bailey Brothers.  This 66-foot-long Burr Truss bridge is also 15 feet wide.  

     

    The original structure was burned in 1994 and replaced with the current structure in 1999.  It is the last burr arch-covered bridge in the county.  Bailey's Bridge spans 'Ten Mile Creek' in the Amwell Township of Washington County in Pennsylvania. 

     

    Dimensions:
    Length of largest span:  35.1 feet
    Total length:  70.3 feet
    Deck width:  14.1 feet

    Of the 1,500 covered bridges that once stood in the state of Pennsylvania, approximately 200 remain as of 2019.

     

    The Washington County History & Landmarks Foundation designated it as a historic bridge.

     

    Bailey Bridge was listed in the National Register of Historic Places on June 22, 1979.
