Harshman Covered Bridge

Harshman Covered Bridge near Fairhaven, Ohio, carries Concord-Fairhaven Road over Four Mile Creek. Built in 1894 by Everett S. Sherman, it survives from the period when covered timber bridges were a practical, familiar part of rural transportation in Ohio. Its significance has been recognized both for local history and for engineering history: it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976, and in 2003 the Historic American Engineering Record documented it through photographs, measured drawings, and detailed data pages. The bridge stands as both a local landmark and an example of historic American engineering.
