Bell Covered Bridge
Science & Tech
Bell Covered Bridge is a historic wooden covered bridge in rural Washington County, Ohio, near Barlow, carrying Bell Road over Falls Creek beside farmland once owned by the Bell family. Built in 1888 by local bridge builder E.B. Henderson, it uses a multiple king post truss and features a gable roof, windows below the roofline, and locally quarried sandstone abutments. The bridge remained in service for most of its life, closing only for major repairs in 1998 and again in 2005 after termite damage. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2012, it was permanently closed in 2022 and remains one of the county’s notable surviving covered bridges.
