The Union Townshop Covered Bridge was southeast of Hollandsburg, Indiana. The single-span Burr Arch covered bridge structure was built by J. J. Daniels in 1851 and torn down in 1872 during the rebuilding of the Plank Road into a toll-free road.[2]

History

Construction

This bridge was built when the Plank Road between Indianapolis and Montezuma was put in. The planks soon rotted however and the Parke County Commissioners purchased the road, graveled it, and made it a free road.

Destruction

As part of the renovation of the Plank Road the Parke County Commissioners had the bridge torn down and a new bridge, the Hollandsburg Covered Bridge, built to replace it.
