Ruff's Mill and Concord Covered Bridge
Ruff's Mill and Concord Covered Bridge, Civil War historic district in Smyrna, US
The Concord Covered Bridge stretches 130 feet across Nickajack Creek, featuring heart-pine timber construction, iron rods, and reinforced steel beams for structural support.
The Battle of Ruff's Mill on July 4, 1864, marked the only successful Union charge against Confederate earthworks during the Atlanta Campaign.
The gristmill complex represents the rural industrial heritage of Georgia, with the Miller's House exemplifying the Plantation Plain architectural style of the 1850s.
The covered bridge maintains a seven-foot height restriction, requiring drivers of large vehicles to use alternative routes via the East-West Connector.
The fieldstone facade of the gristmill still displays bullet marks from the Civil War battle, while the building served as a field hospital.
