Notes
  • Significance: The Allentown Road Bridge is a representative example of a small span masonry arch bridge built for 19th century highway traffic in Pennsylvania. It exhibits a regional stylistic variation, similar to five multiple span stone arch bridges built at that time in Montgomery County. The bridge is one of 144 Pennsylvania highway bridges thematically nominated to the National Register of Historic Places.
