Jackson's Mill Covered Bridge - Covered Bridges on Waymarking.com

This is a very nice bridge not seen by many visitors because it is not located in a heavily traveled section of Lancaster County.

The bridge was damaged by a flood in July, 1984 and rebuilt in 1985. It is covered with vertical board and batten siding.

The bridge is also known as West Octoraro 1 Bridge.
