Description
This unique old bridge crosses Salmon Creek on private property in the settlement of Venersborg near Battle Ground in Clark County, Washington The bridge is no longer used, but it looks as if local people are using it to cross the creek with their horses. The area around the bridge is now so overgrown with brush it is pretty difficult to get a good photograph. I was unable to even see the creek. I know nothing about the history of the bridge, but I love the unusual architecture.

Very neat bridge design, one I'd love to see in person. Nice shot of it.

Thank you, Pamela. It is said to see that it has fallen into disrepair, but it is definitely unique

A very unusually designed bridge, very beautiful architecture. I would surmise it has quite an interesting history to it. v&f

Thank you, Gene. I am sure there is no other bridge quite like it. When I discovered it, I was really disappointed to see it in such decay, although it appears to be structurally sound.

Wow! This is the most unusual covered bridge I've ever seen. Thanks for capturing it so beautifully for all to enjoy!

Holy cow Charles, this is gorgeous. Just look at the patina on those old boards! How beautiful. When something like this is seen, it make it all the more clear that we live in an age of junk, and the beauty and character is left behind us neglected and forgotten. It's a heart breaker. Don't come down on your self because it was "difficult" to get a good photo. You found a way to do it, and then you did it. To me, that's what true artists do. Thank you so much for putting this in Abandoned and Forlorn. f/v
