Notes
  • Significance: The only remaining example of the Long truss system covered bridge in Indiana. Invented by Colonel Stephen H. Long, the truss system was based upon mathematical calculations. While the calculations were not extensive, they did lay a basis for scientific principals being applied in what had hitherto been a pragmatic art.
  • Survey number: HAER IN-27
  • Building/structure dates: 1837-1840 Initial Construction
  • Building/structure dates: 1974 Subsequent Work
