Ten Mile Creek Bridge (Iowa)

The Ten Mile Creek Bridge was a historic structure located northwest of Decorah, Iowa, United States. It spanned Ten Mile Creek for 36 feet (11 m). The R.D. Wheaton Bridge Company of Chicago supplied several king post truss bridges to Winneshiek County in the mid-1890s, and this is probably one of them. There are no county records specific to this bridge.[2] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998 and it was delisted in 2017.[3]
