The Yatesville Covered Bridge, in Lawrence County, Kentucky near Fallsburg, was built in 1907 and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.[1]

It was a {{convert|128|ft|m}} single-span Howe truss bridge over Blaine Creek, located about {{convert|1000|yd|km}} off Yatesville Road, near the Kentucky border. It had board-and-batten siding open at the top under the eaves of the structure, and a corrugated tin roof.

As of the NRHP listing in 1976, there was a "pulleyed steel sedan" about {{convert|25|yd|m}} to the south, and the bridge was closed to vehicular traffic.[2] While there were other beliefs about its function, the cable car system was in fact for U.S. Geological Survey measurement of flow rates of the creek.[4]

The bridge no longer exists.[3]

It was the last-surviving of three known covered bridges in Lawrence County, and was saved from demolition in 1965 by a letter-writing campaign. It was bypassed, repaired, and painted red. However, in May 1986 the bridge collapsed and its remains were removed by the county.[4]
