The bridge crosses the west branch of Conneaut Creek. The Harrington Covered Bridge was one of two in the township until recent history when the Carman Bridge, also over Conneaut Creek, burned down. Today efforts are underway to raise money to build a replica of this old bridge. At one time there were several small hamlets in the township. Today the largest is Cherry Hill at the intersection of U.S. Route 6N and West Cherry Hill Road.
Several houses remain and an ice cream shop, open in good weather, only.
A drive east or west along Cherry Hill Road might reward you with the sight of an Amish buggy, clip-clopping along. Purported to be about 350 years old, the tree is a northern red oak and stands 110 feet high. It has been found about 100 yards west of North Akerly Road, along the south bank of Conneaut Creek. To reach Akerly Road, take 6N to Route 226 and continue west. Akerly Road intersects with Route 226.
