Kirker Covered Bridge, Bypassed
My postings of the Harshaville Covered Bridge in Adams County, Ohio, reminded me of my visit to the county's other covered bridge when I was in Ohio last summer. At the time, I posted a close-up image of the Kirker Covered Bridge, but in looking through the archives, I located this broader shot that includes the concrete highway bridge and the surrounding countryside. On this cold winter day it's nice to see a picture of the greens of summer!
The Kirker Bridge was named for Thomas Kirker, an early Adams County resident who was governor of Ohio from 1807 to 1808. The bridge was built in 1890 and crosses the East Fork of Eagle Creek.
