 The Teegarden Covered Bridge Located in Columbiana County, the
Teegarden Covered Bridge is also known as the Centennial Covered
Bridge because it was built in 1876.
The bridge
is 67 feet long, has a multiple kingpost truss with concrete
abutments and a shake roof that needs some repair, the wooden
siding is multicolored from sporadic replacement. The bridge
crosses the Middle
Fork of Little
Beaver Creek.
 It is situated next to a small park
that appears to have a carbonated spring, actually a deserted
natural gas well, that lies 600 feet below the ground. In the
area of Little Beaver Creek, the stream is polluted and no fishing
is permitted. The park has an excellent vantage point to observe
the bridge, as the creek bank is kept clear of brush and trees.
Directions: Salem Township. From Lisbon, SR 45
north, two miles, left on T 761 (Eagleton Road), two miles.
