The Beeson Covered Bridge, originally located in Parke County, Indiana, was built in 1906 by the Frankfort Construction Company. This historic Burr Arch covered bridge was moved to its current location in Billie Creek Village in December 1979, where it now stands as a pedestrian-only bridge over Williams Creek.
Named after the nearby Beeson family, the Beeson Covered Bridge is a significant contributing property to the U.S. National Register of Historic Places. With a length of 55 feet and a width of 16 feet, this charming bridge offers visitors a glimpse into Indiana's rich covered bridge heritage.
