Elder's Mill Covered Bridge

Uploaded: June 27, 2010

Description

Built in 1897 by Nathaniel Richardson, this 99 foot long bridge originally carried the Wakinsville-Athens Road over Calls Creek. It was moved here in 1924 and the road was relocated to its present site. The nearby c. 1900 grist mill ceased operation in 1941. Constructed in the town lattice style , the bridge’s web of planks crisscrossing at 45- to 60-degree angles are fastened with wooden pegs, or trunnels, at each intersection. It is one of only a few bridges in Georgia that still carries traffic without help from underlying steel beams.
