The Twin Bridges, also known as the East & West Paden Bridges, were constructed in 1884 and named after John Paden who operated a local sawmill. The original West Bridge was washed away in a 2006 and subsequently rebuilt. There is a nice park with picnic tables, grills, benches, and parking nearby that was built when a newer bridge was built adjacent to the Twin Bridges.

The Rupert Covered Bridge which passes over Fishing Creek was built in 1847 by Jesse Beard. The bridge has been restored in the early 2000s and the character of the original bridge has been retained. Covered bridges were designed to protect the wooden bridge from the weather. There are only approximately 750 covered bridges left of the thousands that were built across the USA by the 1870s.
