To support the small mill village a covered bridge was built over the western branch of the Brandywine in 1853. The two span Burr arch structure was 163 feet long with a stone pier at mid-span. The roadway was 16 feet wide. In 1923 the weakened covered bridge was replaced by a 404 foot wide twin span concrete arch bridge built by the Dunleavy Brothers of Coatesville.
This point of interest is part of the tour: Brandywine Creek Canoe Tour upstream from Northbrook
