Horn Davis Overholtzer Bridge
Science & Tech
The Horn Davis Overholtzer Bridge was a wooden covered bridge in southwestern Pennsylvania that crossed Ten Mile Creek at the line between Greene and Washington counties. Built in 1889, it was a ninety-six-foot Burr Arch truss, using a heavy timber arch and trussed framework to strengthen a longer covered span. By October 1978, it was one of only nine historic covered bridges left in Greene County, reflecting the decline of nineteenth-century rural crossings. Its significance was recognized in 1979 through listing on the National Register of Historic Places and designation as a historic bridge, but it collapsed in March 1994 and was never rebuilt.
