The Moore Covered Bridge was northeast of Judson, Indiana. The single-span Burr Arch covered bridge structure was built by the Joseph A. Britton in 1909 and destroyed by flood in 1957.[1]
Joseph A. Britton built this bridge the same year that he built the Phillips Covered Bridge. The location listed is an estimate of where the bridge was actually located. It appears from comparing modern satellite photos to an old Parke County Atlas the location of the bridge may be flooded by a lake now.[2]
In 1957, when this bridge and the Weisner Covered Bridge were both destroyed in the same flood, the idea for a Parke County Covered Bridge Festival was born.
