Saluda County Bridge No. 4, Road S-26 spanning Clouds Creek, Jones Crossroads, Saluda County, SC
Summary
Significance: The significance of the bridges lies not so much in its design, as in the fact that it is the only known Warren pony truss constructed in South Carolina by the Austin Brothers Bridge Company of Atlanta, Georgia. The company is known to have constructed three other metal truss bridges in the State: a pin-connected Pratt through truss (1909), a Warren through truss (1927), and a Parker through truss (date unknown).
