Begun in 1898 in rural Frederick County, Maryland, the LeGore Bridge was completed and opened to the public in 1900.

It is 340 feet (105m) in length, 27 feet (8.3m) wide and 64 feet (16.7m) high. The bridge is situated at 39°35'N 77°19'W. The five arch limestone bridge was restored in 1981 and 2009.
