This excellent photo of the covered bridge at Tunkhannock was shared with The Metcalf Mansion by Pam DeWitt. What a fantastic find! Thank you for sharing this.

*Attention local history lovers...*

Check out this incredible photo from the collection of historic photos that belongs to Pam DeWitt! ❤️

This was the covered bridge in Tunkhannock from 1857-1902!

We are so excited to see this and so many other local photos from well over 100+ years ago.
