Sawhill Covered Bridge

Pennsylvania · Taylorstown County

Nestled in the rural landscape of Taylorstown, Pennsylvania, the Sawhill Covered Bridge stands as a well-preserved example of early 20th-century wooden bridge construction. Built in 1915, this historic structure features a classic queenpost truss design, a sturdy configuration that has allowed it to remain functional for over a century.

The bridge remains open to traffic today, serving as both a practical crossing and a living piece of Pennsylvania’s covered bridge heritage.

Visitor Tips: Visit during autumn for spectacular foliage backdrops. Early morning offers the best lighting for photography, with soft light illuminating the weathered wooden exterior. The surrounding countryside provides excellent framing opportunities. Respect private property when exploring nearby vantage points.
