Every town in America has a claim to fame, and this might just be Ashtabula's.
Here's a photograph of the longest covered bridge in the United States. In fact, there are only a few larger in the entire world.
This is a relatively new structure, according to the signs in the adjoining park that overlooks the structure. The bridge was build in 2008. It goes over the Ashtabula River, which wasn't too mighty when we saw it as a bit of water headed north into Lake Erie.
Be sure to get out of the car and take a walk at least part way over the bridge. There is a "lane" for walkers on the side of the bridge, and the architecture is quite interesting as these things go.
If you are going to visit, I'd bet October would be the month to see it.
