Bennett’s Mill Covered Bridge Historical Site

Bennett’s Mill Covered Bridge is one of Kentucky's historical landmarks, providing a glimpse into the post-Civil War period of innovation in bridge construction. Built in 1855 or 1856 by B. F. Bennett and his brother Pramley, the bridge remains one of the longest single-span wooden covered bridges open to traffic in the world. It serves as a rich educational resource for students and those interested in historic engineering and woodworking techniques. The original footings and frame are intact, presenting an opportunity for exploration and study of historical construction methods.
