History
The Easley Covered Bridge was built by a crew led by Zelmer C. Tidwell and uncle Forrest Tidwell in 1927 over Dub Branch. Other than occasional repair work, this bridge was in continuous use since it was constructed until it was closed in 2009. It has since been restored and was reopened in October 2012.
