Graham Road Bridge is a covered bridge which formerly spanned the west branch of the Ashtabula River in Pierpont Township, Ashtabula County, Ohio, United States. Built from remnants of a former covered bridge that was damaged in a flood in 1913, the bridge now sits in an Ashtabula County MetroPark along the south side of Graham Road, near its original site, and is a single span Town truss design.[1] Relocated in 1972, it is no longer open to vehicle traffic. The bridge’s WGCB number is 35-04-13,[2] and it is located approximately 8.4 mi (13.5 km) east-northeast of Jefferson.
