Auchumpkee Creek Covered Bridge, Covered bridge in Upson County, United States.

The Auchumpkee Creek Covered Bridge extends 120 feet over the water, featuring a traditional wooden structure with a metal roof and stone foundations.

Built in 1892 by Herring and Alford for $1,194.98, the bridge incorporated the Town Lattice design patented in 1820 by Ithiel Town from Connecticut.

The bridge stands near the Hootenville Community, where presidential candidate Martin Van Buren made an overnight stop during his 1848 campaign.

Located 10 miles southeast of Thomaston, visitors can access the bridge via Allen Road, approximately one mile from U.S. Highway 19.

The structure incorporates wooden pegs called trunnels at joint intersections and maintains 30 percent of its original timber despite extensive restoration.

Location: Upson County
