Engle Mill Road Covered Bridge
Video
Engle Mill Road Covered Bridge movie, Greene County, OH 2.AVI I stopped by this bridge late in the day, and the first thing I heard when I stepped out of the car was a series of bangs. I thought someone was in the bridge banging on something, but closer inspection proved it to be a wind-aided noise. This bridge is in pretty rough shape. Get there soon if it's on your list.
