The Bowsher Ford Covered Bridge is a single span Burr Arch truss covered bridge structure that was built by J.A. Britton's son, Eugene Britton, in 1915.

History

Elmer Garrard won the bid to build this bridge but needed the Britton families expertise. Eugene Britton was contracted and credited as the builder.

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.
