Description
"Clements Stone Arch Bridge, Chase County, Kansas" by Catherine Sherman.
Built from locally quarried stone, the Clements Arch Bridge over the Cottonwood River in Kansas has double 28' arches.
The date 1886 is carved into the side of the bridge, and its centennial was celebrated in 1986, bids to do portions of the work were not accepted until late in 1887, and the bridge was not completed until sometime in 1888.
Closed now except to foot traffic, the Clements Stone Arch Bridge was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976, but there is no marker.
The bridge is one of many historical sights in Chase County, Kansas, including the magnificent Chase County Courthouse.
