Stovall Mill Covered Bridge

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Stovall Mill Covered Bridge is the smallest covered bridge Georgia. Built in 1895, it is one span wide and 33 feet long. It spans Chickamauga Creek in White County and is located near State Route 255. The bridge is currently owned by the White County Historical Society. The bridge served as a link on the Cleveland to Clayton Road, but, by 1959, the road was moved away from the bridge. The bridge has a variety of names including the Helen Bridge, Sautee Bridge, Nacoochee Bridge and Chickamauga Bridge.

The Stovall Mill Covered Bridge was featured in the 1951 movie, “I’d Climb The Highest Mountain” starring Rory Calhoun, William Lundigan and Susan Haywood.
