The Dingleton Hill Bridge is another James Tasker bridge and is located a mile or so from the last bridge I visited. He did not constuct this over the river but rather built it in a local school yard and then it was moced here. Which I think is just amazing given that it was built in 1882 and this likely involved some strong oxen.

The state numbers each covered brige and posts one of these signs nearby or on the bridge.

This bridge and the Blasksmith Shop Bridge were both restored in 1983. When it reopened Tasker’s great-grandnephew came up from Connecticut to attend the opening. The cost to restore both was $30,000 and paid for by a mix of federal, local, and private funds.
I really like the perspective in the first photo, with the Black-Eyed Susan in the foreground.
Thank you, Liz. That’s my favorite also.
He who finds the covered bridges strikes again!!!! That first shot is cool 🙂
Thank you Teri. I think that will be a calendar shot. 😊
Sweet!!!
The lighting is perfect. Well done! 👁👁🍃
Thank you so much, Gail. 😊
Amazing that it was moved after it was built elsewhere!
I know. He also did it with an even larger one which is currently the longest in the US. That would have been something to see.
His great-grandnephew came down for the reopening–how wonderful is that?! That first photo is very pretty.
Thank you. I think that will be a calendar shot.
I really like the first photo.😍
Thank you, Arati. It’s my fave too. 😊
love these shots!
Beautiful capture. Loved the first and the last photo.
Thank you. I think that first shot is my favorite. It’s a challenge to show all of the bridges a little differently.
James Tasker is a genius to have made all those bridges. I don’t remember that we have covered bridges here…that’s why its really fascinating to see one even in photos..and i am glad you featured them here.
I love the angle/shot (not sure about the term) of the first photo as it speaks so much on me..looks like the photographer is eavesdropping or something…really intriguing
Thank you, Michelle. Each area has its own bit of charm. I was comparing notes with a friend in Spain. She is fascinated with our covered bridges and I’m fascinated with her Roman aqueducts and ancient stone bridges.
I like that first shot also. I parked across from the flowers and just happened to notice them as I got out of the car. I like how you describe it as almost like eavesdropping.
Have a great evening. 😊
Love all these shots. You have such a good eye!
Thank you so much. 😊
Wow Chris! That first shot is such a winner. And what amazing details you’re able to uncover, relocation?! Like that’s so simple! Cool picture story. Happy Friday my friend! Take good care
Thank you, Sandra. The first shot seems very popular. It’s defintely a keeper and will go on next year’s calendar. Thank you. Yes it’s the weekend. The weather is supposed to be nice without being oppressively hot hot here. I’m hoping for some quality outdoors time. I hope you have something fun planned this weekend.
Yay! The weekend is here! I am envious of your comfortable climate. Still sizzling at a steady 98*s around here. No plans really. It’s August Chris! Can you believe it?
Where did the summer go? Well, we still have August to enjoy; if you can enjoy 98 degrees. But you have the pool and your morning walks. 😊
