Summary

Description

Picture of the Susquehanna_River from the Susquehanna State Park in Maryland somewhere along Stafford Road. The picture was taken looking NE. It was directly adjacent to an old two story house (plus a basement) with white siding and a stone foundation.

This picture of the Susquehanna River includes the a number of the delapitated piers for the former bridge between w:Lapidum and w:Port Deposit. This Port Deposit Bridge, put into service in 1818, was the earliest bridge crossing of the Susquehanna River in Maryland. The wooden covered bridge was constructed just north of Port Deposit between 1817 and 1818 and had to be rebuilt after a span burned in 1823. It was reconstructed and remained in service until 1857. The piers were in relatively good shape in the 60's, but have been so badly damaged by high water periodically released from the Conowingo dam just upstream that they are now piles of stone in the river.

The far shoreline in the image is not the left bank of the river, but Wood Island. Wood Island is only 0.25 miles from the near (right) river bank, and the entire river is about 0.81 miles wide at this point, so this image is not indicative of the width of the river. --J Clear (talk) 01:14, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
