Crawford Covered Bridge

Crawford Covered Bridge in West Finley, Pennsylvania, carries road traffic over the Robinson Fork of Wheeling Creek. This compact Queen post truss span, about 39 feet long and 11 feet 7 inches wide, retains practical features including high sidewalls, crosswise planking, and a sheet metal roof. Rather than surviving only as a decorative relic, it remains open to vehicles and continues to serve its original role in the local road network. Its importance rests in the preservation of a traditional covered-bridge form that still functions in everyday use across a small Pennsylvania stream.
