Description 

FROM THE 1996-2001 PENNSYLVANIA HISTORIC BRIDGE SURVEY: The 2-span, 50'-long steel stringer bridge was built in 1934 with a timber deck and wood railings. The deck and railings were replaced in 1970 with a steel grid deck and W-beam guiderails. The bridge is supported on stone abutments and a concrete pier. It has no innovative or distinguishing details and is an altered example of the most common, mid-20th century bridge type in the state. Neither the bridge nor its setting or context are historically or technologically noteworthy.
