Info.

The Goodman Covered Bridge, also known as the Hobart Covered Bridge, is no longer standing … it crossed Salt Creek in Section 28, Township 7 North, and Range 1 West, Monroe County. This single span Howe Truss structure had a length of 100 feet, or 112 feet including the 6-foot overhang at each end, with a portal clearance 16 feet wide by 13 feet 6 inches high. Built in 1881 by Thomas A. Hardman, this bridge received its name from the fact that it was built over Goodman Ford. This Covered Bridge was listed as #14-53-04 in the World Guide (according to G. Gould's 1977 list) and was removed in 1964 as part of the Monroe Reservoir project.
