Carrolton Covered Bridge, WV, USA

From the ashes, the Carrolton Covered Bridge was rebuilt using both salvaged and new materials.

The bridge carries a local county route over the Buckhannon River in Barbour County, West Virginia. Completed in 1856 for the Middle Fork Turnpike, the covered crossing used a Burr Arch design with Kingpost trusses. It was renovated in 1963, 1987, and again in 2002, before being heavily damaged by fire in 2017. I've posted more photos and the history of the bridge here.
