Fisher School Bridge

Fisher School Bridge is a covered bridge in Lincoln County, Oregon, near the community of Fisher, where its 72-foot Howe truss spans Five Rivers. Also called Five Rivers Bridge, it is named for the former Fisher Elementary School across Crab Creek Road. County records give conflicting construction dates of 1919 or 1927, though 1919 is the official date. As the only surviving covered bridge in the Five Rivers basin, it is rare in the area. Its semi-elliptical portal arches, ribbon windows, and flared side walls reflect Oregon’s historic covered bridge design, and preservation efforts saved and restored it after replacement and later deterioration.
