White Rock Forge Covered Bridge
White Rock Forge Covered Bridge, Covered bridge in Colerain Township, United States.
The White Rock Forge Covered Bridge extends 103 feet across the West Branch of Octoraro Creek with traditional red paint and white approaches.
John Russell and Elias McMellen constructed the original bridge in 1847, which was later reconstructed in 1884 following its destruction.
The bridge represents Pennsylvania's transportation heritage through its wooden double Burr arch truss design and traditional Lancaster County color scheme.

The bridge received recognition from the National Register of Historic Places in 1980 under reference number 80003522 for its architectural elements.
