This unique through girder bridge carries a field access road over Dry Creek, north of Burlington.
Built in 1898, the bridge consists of a pair of through girder spans, set onto stone and brick substructures. These through girder spans are heavily skewed, and heavily built.
While the abutments are constructed of stone, the pier for this bridge is a concrete encased brick structure. Nearby bridges have the same brick pier, which is a unique feature of these bridges, and the only instances noted by the author.
Overall, the bridge appears to be in fair condition. The deck of the bridge was removed and reconstructed with sheet metal and concrete, likely soon after the abandonment. A gate on the bridge prevents motor vehicles from crossing.
The author has ranked this bridge as being locally significant, due to the common design. Despite this, the brick pier is a feature of which uniqueness cannot be understated.
The photo above is an overview. The bridge was accessed from the parallel road.
