The Bailey Covered Bridge is a historic Burr truss bridge spanning Ten Mile Creek in Amity, Washington County, Pennsylvania. Built in 1889, it is the last burr arch covered bridge in the county. The original structure was destroyed by fire in 1994 and rebuilt in 1999 with new materials while retaining the original Burr arches and central cross timbers. The arch is not notched into the abutments, which some would consider a Modified King Post with arch configuration.
