Pisgah Covered Bridge is a wooden covered bridge that spans the west fork of the Little River in Randolph County, North Carolina. It is one of two remaining original historic covered bridges in the state, (the other being the Bunker Hill Covered Bridge in Claremont, North Carolina) and is designated as both a local and federal historic landmark. ==History== The bridge was built in 1911 by J. J. Welch at a cost of $40.〔The N.C. Zoo Society web page says 1911; the fall 2003 edition of the ''Newsletter of the National Association for the Preservation of Covered Bridges'' says 1910; still other websites have a date of 1903 without a reference.〕 It is a one-lane bridge, 54 feet in length. The bridge eventually became obsolete when it could no longer handle the increased traffic, but it remains as a tourist attraction located at 6925 Pisgah Covered Bridge Road, west of the community of Pisgah. The road now crosses a nearby two-lane concrete bridge built in the 1950s.
