BRADDOCK'S RUN BRIDGE (Farmington, Fayette County) built 1755

The bridge was built on Braddock's Trail during his ill fated expedition against Fort Duquesne in 1755. The memory of the perils of that campaign remain strong. It's said that one of Braddock's Grenadiers still accompanies anyone crossing the bridge and stays with them until they reach the other side in safety.
