Loy's Station bridge timbers salvaged for reuse
Volunteers at Loy's Station bridge near Emmitsburg salvage charred timber from the burned arch for reuse as beam components. Sawmill owner Dean Fitzgerald says 70 to 80 percent of roof rafters and brace timbers will be original, while construction is led by Snear Construction of Hagerstown with new materials. The effort honors heritage, promotes durability, and aims to attract visitors to Frederick County’s covered bridges.
