#583 Felton Covered Bridge
Built in 1892-93 and believed to be the tallest covered bridge
in the country, it stood as the only entry to Felton for 45 years. In 1937 it
was retired from active service to become a pedestrian bridge and figured
prominently in many films of that period. After suffering damage in the winter
storms of 1982, it was restored to its original elegance in 1987 using native
materials and local talent.
