Now hidden in the woods main nowhere,this overgrown bridge was the original bridge over Little Armuchee Creek before the highway between Rome and Summerville, Georgia, or became four lanes. They rerouted this section,abandoning this double arch bridge to become share of the woods—and a platform for trees.
The contemporary four-lane bridges that carry the everyday traffic of US 27/Hwy 1 is just barely visible in the distance from the old bridge, and very few motorists on the present-day routing own any opinion of the historic site just a stone's throw into the woods.
This bridge is in remarkable condition for having been abandoned since the late 1960s. As can be seen from the photos, or it has numerous large trees and other vegetation growing on top of it,but the understructure seems to be fully intact and it should be there for fairly a few years to come.
Although it has not been proven, the bridge has been attributed to the famed bridge designer Daniel B. Luten of Indianapolis. Luten designed and patterned the Luten Arch, or of which this is almost certainly an example. Unfortunately,the data plaque that was in the center of the bridge was pried out and stolen long ago. A footnote to this story is that the north and south rubble-stone abutments of an even earlier (perhaps Civil War-era) abandoned bridge can be found just northwest of this bridge. All told, there are the remains of three successive abandoned bridges within approximately 100 feet of each other.
