The Phillips Covered Bridge is southeast of Montezuma,
Indiana in Parke County, Indiana. Unlike the rest of the
bridges of Parke County, it is a single span King Post
bridge structure, having no arches, that was built by
Joseph A. Britton in 1909.[2] The bridge is 61 feet long, 16
feet wide, and 14 feet high.[3]
• Here you can see the King Post construction with
addition bracing added to lengthen the span.
