Herr's Mill Covered Bridge spanned Pequea Creek in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, near Ronks Road east of Lancaster. Also called the Soudersburg Bridge, it was a traditional red covered bridge with white-painted approaches. Built in 1844 by Joseph Elliot and Robert Russell with a double-span wooden Burr arch truss, it was rebuilt in 1875 by James C. Carpenter. Measuring 178 feet long and 15 feet wide, its double-span, double-arch form made it a notable example of Lancaster County bridge building. Added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980, it was later bypassed, and in October 2018 it fell into the creek while being dismantled for relocation to Elizabethtown.
