Description
Here in Columbia and Montour counties, stretching across the Susquehanna River Valley, covered bridge fans will find a large concentration of historic wooden bridges. One of the few sites in America that feature a set of twin bridges, the East and West Paden Bridges create the centerpiece for Twin Bridges County Park. Built in 1884 by W. C. Pennington for 750 dollars, the twins were named for John Paden who operated a nearby saw mill. When bypassed by a modern concrete bridge in 1963, Columbia County residents were treated to picturesque park setting and two freshly painted bridges.
