Shuford Bridge Is Safe, May 27, 1921

Shuford Bridge Safe

Hearing comments and questions in regards to the safety of the covered bridge over the French Broad River at Penrose, known as the Shuford Bridge, the county road commissioners requested J.M. Kilpatrick to make an examination of the bridge and report conditions. Mr. Kilpatrick recently visited the place, made a thorough inspection, and reported the bridge in good condition and perfectly safe for travel.

From the Brevard News, May 27, 1921. The bridge in the photo is actually from Randolph County. To read about it, go to One of the last Covered Bridges in North Carolina - YouTube.
