Goose Creek Stone Bridge

The Goose Creek Stone Bridge extends 200 feet across the water with four symmetrical arches constructed from locally sourced stone materials.

Built between 1801 and 1803, this structure served as a vital link on the Ashby's Gap Turnpike and witnessed combat during the 1863 Battle of Upperville.

The bridge represents early American engineering methods and stands as a testament to nineteenth-century transportation infrastructure in northern Virginia.

Located near present-day U.S. Route 50, the bridge remains accessible for pedestrian viewing through the preservation efforts of the Fauquier and Loudoun Garden Club.

At 212 feet in length, this structure maintains its position as the longest remaining stone turnpike bridge throughout the state of Virginia.
