The first, built around 1827, was burned down in the American Civil War and the second, built in 1870, was replaced by the current bridge. At the time of its construction it was the widest roadway in the state. It was the only bridge across the Congaree River until 1953. ==Architecture== The bridge is an arch bridge constructed from reinforced concrete with open spandrels.〔 The bridge is crossed by a roadway flanked by sidewalks.
