Simpson Creek Covered Bridge is located in Bridgeport, West Virginia, crossing Simpson Creek off Meadowbrook Road near the entrance to the Meadowbrook Mall.
The 14.25-foot-wide (4.34 m), 75-foot-long (23 m) multiple-kingpost truss bridge was built in 1881 by Asa Hugill.
It was washed out by a flood in July 1889 and later relocated to its current location a half-mile upstream from its original spot.
[2][3] In fall of 2001, the West Virginia Division of Highways used nearly $400,000 to renovate the Simpson Creek Covered Bridge.
The improvements include a new timber deck, wooden exterior siding and a fresh coat of paint.
