Watson Mill Bridge

Built by W.W. King in 1885, Watson Mill Bridge is Georgia’s longest existing covered bridge. Of the Town lattice type, it has four spans and is 236 feet long. Covered primarily to protect the structural timbers, the bridge served local traffic, the workers of the now missing grist mill and saw mill, and even picnics and square dances. The bridge was restored in 1973 by the Georgia Department of Transportation to serve as a nucleus for the surrounding state park.
