Oregon's 51 Covered Bridges can be found in 12 counties from Portland in the north to Ashland in the south. Most are located in Lane County east of the cities of Eugene/Springfield. 

The bridge is located in the community of Harris founded 1890, Benton County near Wren, Oregon.

Harris Creek Covered Bridge was rebuilt in 1929 over the Mary's River.  The round portal design with board and batten exterior is finished with a shingle roof.

The Howe Truss design is kept dry by the roof which makes the bridge last 80 years or more and would deteriorate in 9 years if left uncovered.

The bridge provides easy crossing the Mary's River.
