Winkley Bridge, Spanning Little Red River adjacent to State Highway No. 110, Heber Springs, Cleburne County, AR

Significance: The Winkley Bridge was an excellent example of a streamlined suspension bridge, and one of only two remaining suspension bridges in Arkansas, before its collapse in 1989. For a period of sixty years, the Winkley Bridge served as the only convenient link between the eastern section of Cleburne County and the county seat of Heber Springs.
