Watts Mill Bridge, Bridge in Cannelton, Pennsylvania
The Watts Mill Bridge extends 109 feet over Little Beaver Creek, featuring a pin-connected Pratt pony truss design with a width of 12.5 feet.
The West Penn Bridge Company constructed this transportation link in 1878, connecting communities across Little Beaver Creek during Pennsylvania's industrial growth period.
The bridge stands as the only structure in Beaver County individually recognized on the National Register of Historic Places for its engineering characteristics.
Following rehabilitation efforts completed in March 2023, the bridge now serves as a pedestrian crossing, connecting to the North Country National Scenic Trail.
The bridge's rehabilitation occurred after its identification as a preservation priority by the Young Preservationists Association of Pittsburgh in 2004.
