Built in 1897 by Nathaniel Richardson, this 99-foot-long covered bridge originally carried the Watkinsville-Athens Road over Calls Creek. It was moved to Rose Creek in 1924 when the road was relocated to its present site. The nearby c. 1900 grist mill ceased operation in 1941. Constructed in the Town lattice design, the bridge has a web of planks crisscrossing at 45- to 60-degree angles fastened with wooden pegs, or trunnels, at each intersection, and it is one of the few covered bridges in Georgia continuing to carry traffic without underlying steel beams.
