Vinton Covered Bridge Praised By Committee
The Penn bridge on Gheer's Mill Road in Wilkesville Township, one of five Vinton County covers, was hailed as the best examined humpback bridge. The Ohio Covered Bridge Committee urged preservation, and county officials inspected the bridge noting it is in good shape after a spring $1800 rehabilitation including a new abutment and roof work. The 114 year old structure, built before 1848 by Martin McGraff, carries a five ton load limit over Raccoon Creek. Gheer's Mill site is among the county's oldest bridges.
