Dents Run Covered Bridge, Historic covered bridge in Monongalia County, United States.

The Dents Run Covered Bridge extends 40 feet in length and 13 feet in width, featuring a traditional Kingpost truss design over Dents Run.

The construction of this wooden bridge in 1889 involved W.A. Loar for stone abutments and William and Joseph Mercer for the framework at a total cost of 448 dollars.

The bridge stands as a testament to 19th-century American engineering methods and represents the evolution of transportation infrastructure in West Virginia.

Located at the intersection of Fairmont Road and Sugar Grove Road, the bridge remains accessible for visitors interested in historical architecture and engineering.

This structure maintains its position as the final remaining covered bridge within the boundaries of Monongalia County, West Virginia.
