Herold Road Bridge

Herold Road Bridge and Scenic Sign  The bridge over Birch River, one mile above Herold, was originally built in 1921 and was replaced in 1993. Carmel Johnson, who worked on the 1921 span as a teenager and lived at the mouth of Long Run, watched the new bridge be built. At the north end of the bridge is the "Scenic Birch River" sign that commemorates the inclusion of the final seventeen miles of Birch into the State Natural Streams Preservation Act in 1975.
