The Harry Evans Covered Bridge is a single-span Burr Arch Truss structure that crosses Rock Run, built in 1908 by J.A. Britton 1⁄2 mi north of Coxville, Parke County, Indiana.

Dimensions: Length of largest span: 61.0 ft.; total length: 81.0 ft.; deck width: 15.1 ft.; vertical clearance above deck: 13.2 ft.

The story goes that one of the former neighbors of the bridge was incensed over naming the bridge after local resident Harry Evans. He claimed that because Harry lived at the top of the hill, which was named after another Evans who lived in the valley. However, county records show that Harry Evans owned the land near the bridge. The land stayed in the Evans' name until the 1960s. The hills near the bridge are also riddled with numerous, and dangerous, old coal mines.
