May have been relocated there in 35'.....but yes definitely older than that!
This bridge is definitely older than 1935--given the light construction and the use of pinned connections, probably 1900-1905 would be a more likely build date. Bob, don't feel too sad about the old bridge--it's still there, and that's more than we can say for most historic bridges that get replaced! ;>) Now, hopefully, it will be rehabbed for pedestrians sometime in the near future...
This is a powerpoint presentation of photographs of the Caney Creek Bridge completed for a Materials Civil Engineering course at Western Kentucky University.
This bridge has been moved and saved. Grayson County has reinstalled the bridge at a new park they are building in Leitchfield, KY. It is going to be used for pedestrian access from downtown to other park facilities.
