AR 289 Bridge Over English Creek
The AR 289 Bridge Over English Creek is a historic bridge in rural eastern Fulton County, Arkansas. The bridge, a single-span steel Pratt through-truss structure, carries Arkansas Highway 289 over English Creek south of Mammoth Spring. The span is 122 feet (37 m) long and 20 feet (6.1 m) wide, and rests on concrete abutments. Built in 1929 by the Virginia Bridge and Iron Company, it is important as a well-preserved example of its type in Fulton County, and for its historical role in transportation in the region.[2]
