Harpersfield Bridge is a covered bridge spanning the Grand River in Harpersfield Township, Ashtabula County, Ohio, United States. This double-span Howe truss bridge, one of currently 16 drivable covered bridges in the county, is the third longest covered bridge in Ohio at 228 feet. A flood in 1913 washed away the land at the north end of the bridge, and the steel span was subsequently attached. The bridge features a walkway, added during its renovation in 1991-92. The bridge also features an Ashtabula County MetroPark at its north end, and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.〔http://www.coveredbridgefestival.org/bridges.htm Ashtabula County Ohio Covered Bridge Festival〕 The bridge’s WGCB number is 35-04-19,〔http://www.dalejtravis.com/bridge/ohio/htm/3500419.htm Ohio Covered Bridges List, 35-04-19〕 and it is located approximately 3.4 mi (5.4 km) south of Geneva. ==History== *1868 – Bridge constructed.〔 * 1913 – Steel span added *1962 – Bypassed when State Route 534 was rerouted around the settlement of Harpersfield.〔(Official Transportation Map archive ), Ohio Department of Transportation〕 *1991-92 – Bridge renovated.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Harpersfield Covered Bridge」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
