Pleasant Stream Bridge
Posted December 5, 2016, by Nathan Holth (webmaster [at] historicbridges [dot] org)

Here's another Pennsylvania bridge confirmed to be destroyed by a flood (possibly the October 21 floods). The damage appeared to be recent because nearby tall grass was all laid flat. I posted a few of my photos for reference. The nearby pony truss listed on this website was not harmed.
