History
The bridge crosses Big Elk Creek and is surrounded by the Fair Hill Natural Resources Management Area, the former land holdings of William du Pont Jr. The crossing was originally called Strahorn's Mill Bridge[1] after Strahorn's Mill - one of the properties purchased by William du Pont Jr. in 1927 to create his Foxcatcher Farm estate, which was named after his thoroughbred racing stable.[1]
The bridge was originally constructed in 1860 by Ferdinand Wood[2] and was substantially reconstructed in 1992. Foxcatcher Farm Covered Bridge was designated as a Maryland Historic Civil Engineering Landmark by the American Society of Civil Engineers in 1994.[1][3]
