Located .8 miles north of Greencastle, this bridge was built in 1880 by the local farmers using timber which was cut on the Dunbar farm adjoining the bridge site. This burr arch, two-span bridge is 174 ft. long, plus a 12 ft. overhang at each end. The bridge is 16 ft. wide and 13 ft, 6 in. high with cut stone abutments, piles and a shingle roof. It is possible that J.J. Daniels had a hand in the building of this bridge. It is still in use and in good repair.
