Firescald Creek Stone Arch Bridge

This one was a little hard to find, only because I was going off GPS coordinates that took me someplace further down the road. Found it going back. But what is interesting is that further down the road seems to be a much older road off going into the woods. Maybe at one time connected to the original bridge? Anyway this bridge was built in 1906 for $547.45 and of the initial three I went out hunting for this one was the least impressive for me. Still a magnificent piece of history and one you should take the time to see though. The top of it looks to have been covered in asphalt, I'm guessing to help preserve it. There is a nice little picnic area here except for what looks like a trash dump...an illegal one at that. But the scenery is quite beautiful and the water is clear. At the very least, seeing the bridge is great before one day it may not be here.

A piece of history, great picnic area.

Cool bridge. Hard to get a good look at it through the trees. You can walk over it but it goes nowhere.
