Adams Mill Covered Bridge, Historic covered bridge in Carroll County, Indiana.
The Adams Mill Covered Bridge spans 144 feet across Wildcat Creek with a wooden structure featuring a Howe truss design and iron components.
Built in 1872 by the Wheelock Bridge Company of Fort Wayne, the bridge responded to local petitions for a crossing near the Adams Mill settlement.
The bridge represents 19th-century engineering methods, combining wood and metal construction techniques that influenced transportation development in rural Indiana.
Following extensive restoration in 1999, the bridge maintains a three-ton weight limit and includes viewing windows for observing Wildcat Creek.
Wooden Burr arches were added around 1900 to increase the load capacity, integrating two different bridge construction methods into one structure.
