HALLS HILL BRIDGE – WEST TRIMBLE ROAD

EAST FORK OF STONES RIVER

In the 1930’s, several metal bridges were built over Stones River through out Rutherford County.  These bridges have all been replaced with modern concrete bridges.  Information in the public records is sparse concerning old bridges over the East Fork of Stones River.  I find two references in the Historical Society publications about the Halls Hill Bridge.  One mentions the bridge above Thompson Wright’s Mill in 1835.  The other mentions repairs to the bridge in 1860.  This bridge(s) was, no doubt, build of wood.  The metal bridge in the pictures was probably built in the late 1960’s or early 1970’s.
