# Norris Ford Covered Bridge

Norris Ford Covered Bridge is a historic covered bridge located near Rushville, Indiana in Rushville Township, Rush County, Indiana. It was built in 1916 by Emmett L. Kennedy and his sons Karl and Charles. It is a Burr Arch bridge, 154 feet (47 m) long over Big Flat Rock Creek. The bridge has rounded arch portals and does not have the decorative scrollwork and brackets that are signatures of the Kennedy firm, due to them being out of vogue by $1916.^{:2,15}$

It was listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places in 1983, as part of a multiple property submission covering six bridges built by the Kennedy family firm.
