Day 50 - Wehr Covered Bridge

Today an the way home from work, I stopped by the Wehr Covered Bridge. In 1862, Ephraim Sieger built a stone gristmill on the north bank of the Jordan, and the bridge became known as Sieger’s Covered Bridge. After several owners, the mill was sold to William Wehr, and the bridge eventually was named Wehr’s Covered Bridge. The present concrete dam near the bridge that supplied power for the gristmill was built in 1904 and replaced the original wooden dam located a short distance upstream. The mill was torn down in 1951, and today locals refer to the general area surrounding the bridge as “Wehr’s Dam”. Wehr’s Bridge, which was built in the Burr arch truss design.

The Images I will be showing today, some are taken without the Infrared filter and others with the filter on.
