Buck Hill Farm Covered Bridge in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, is a preserved Burr arch-truss covered bridge that probably dates to around 1825, when it likely served access to Abram Hess's store. Originally spanning Middle Creek, it was sold to George Eichelberger in 1844 and, after severe flood damage that same year, rebuilt by Theodore D. Cochran for $799. In 1966 the bridge was moved to private property at Buck Hill Farm, where it now crosses a pond. Unusual among Lancaster County covered bridges for its horizontal side boards, it remains a notable example of Pennsylvania's covered-bridge tradition and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.
