Dick Huffman Covered Bridge

USA / Indiana / Center Point /
 covered bridge, 1880_construction

This bridge is our largest bridge, being 265 ft. plus a 4 ft. overhang at each end. This howe truss bridge was built in 1880 by an unknown builder. The two-span bridge has cut stone abutments and piles with a sheet metal roof and is 16 ft. wide and 15 ft. high. Known in its earlier days as the Wetky Bridge, it was named for the old Wetky Mill nearby. This bridge rightfully deserves the name of Huffman as the county map shows the farm of Gruely R. Huffman. Nearby and further upstream is the house of Carl A. Huffman. It is still in use.
