    The 1890 King Covered Bridge is a historic wooden covered bridge located in Wayne Township in Greene County, Pennsylvania. It is a 46.5-foot-long (14.2 m), Queenpost truss bridge with a tin-covered gable roof that crosses the Hoover Run. It is known for its rustic appearance with unpainted vertical board siding and a deck with crosswise planking. The bridge rests on cut stone abutments, which are extended to form short wingwalls slightly higher than the road level. It has the typical narrow lengthwise opening under the eaves.

     

    Located in Pennsylvania’s southwestern corner, King Covered Bridge is the southernmost bridge in Greene County, just a couple of miles north of the West Virginia border. It is one of nine historic covered bridges in Greene County.

     

    King Bridge was restored in 2004 with the addition of five steel beams.

     

    It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.
