Description
Autumn at the Mill Creek Covered Bridge located southwest of Tangier, Indiana, one of Parke County, Indiana’s 31 covered bridges.
Constructed in 1907 by D.M. Brown, Mill Creek Covered Bridge is a single-span Burr Arch Truss covered bridge that spans 92 feet across the (Wabash) Mill Creek.
J.J. Daniels submitted a bid for this bridge, but D.M. Brown was awarded the contract for what would be his only covered bridge. Inexperienced in bridge building, Brown had so much trouble getting started on this bridge that he hired William Hendricks to help him build it.
