Mahned Bridge, Iron truss bridge in Perry County, Mississippi.
The Mahned Bridge stretches 335 feet across the Leaf River with two main truss types, Camelback and Pratt, built by Chicago Bridge & Iron Company.
The bridge construction in 1903 marked one of the first structures to connect rural farming communities to New Augusta and Hattiesburg across the Leaf River.
The bridge obtained its name from the adjacent community of Mahned, which was founded by Confederate officer Joseph Wyatt Denham who reversed his surname.
The wooden deck of the bridge, once 18 feet wide, has been removed since its closure in 1980, making it inaccessible to the public.
The bridge received designation as a Mississippi Landmark in 1996 and recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in November 1997.
