It is one of thirty-nine Warren truss bridges recorded in the Georgia Historic Bridge Survey. It is one of thirty identified as a Warren pony truss with verticals in Georgia and one of two such bridges in Fannin County. The bridge does not possess a bridge plate. However, according to GDOT Maintenance records the bridge was constructed in The historical context of this bridge is unknown. The Georgia Department of Transportation (GDOT) was established in Prior to the establishment of GDOT, the responsibility of roads and bridges in Georgia rested with the counties. It has been found from researching a number of bridges on the Georgia Historic Bridge Survey that records of construction of bridges on county rural systems and to a large degree on state systems were rarely kept.
Therefore, unless the bridge possesses a bridge plate identifying the date of construction, the bridge company or the county offficers at the time of construction, it is virtually impossible to associate the bridge with historical events, periods, activities or people.
