The Lilly Truss Bridge was eligible for the National Register of Historic Places for its association with the creation of Bluestone Dam and Bluestone Lake. Built in 1950 by the Virginia Bridge Company to provide a transportation link across the lake, it was also significant as a good example of a 5-span cantilevered truss bridge. The bridge was supported by concrete abutments and 4 concrete piers, measured 1,163 feet long and 24 feet wide, and contained steel channel and angle bridge rails.
