The Armstrong Covered Bridge, also known as the Clio Covered Bridge, is located in Cambridge City Park in Cambridge, Ohio.

Built in 1849 by Abraham Armstrong at his mill for $510, the covered multiple Kingpost truss structure originally spanned Salt Creek near the town of Clio. ^{1 2 3} It survived Confederate General John Hunt Morgan’s raid through Ohio in 1863. ²

In 1966, during the development of Salt Fork State Park, the bridge was moved from its original location near Clio to Cambridge City Park, where it remains preserved today. ^{1 2}
