Today, only the Banks Covered Bridge and the McConnell's Mill Covered Bridge near Rose Point remain.[3]{{rp|2}} While the Howe truss used by the McConnell's Mill bridge is very rare, the Burr arch truss used by the Banks bridge is employed by many Pennsylvania bridges. Its interior walls are similar to those featured on many covered bridges in Bucks County.[3]{{rp|3}} In 1980, the bridge was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in recognition of its historical significance,[2] along with the McConnell's Mill bridge.[3] References1. ^1 2 3 Zacher, Susan M.
