Serving as the oldest covered bridge that remains standing in Greene County, this bridge was names for Edward (Ned or Neddie) W. Wood, a Civil War veteran who owned the land on which the bridge was built in 1882. Standing in the open farmland countryside of Greene County, the Neddie Woods Bridge is covered on both sides and portals with unpainted vertical board siding. The roof is made of corrugated sheet metal, and the decking is covered with crosswise planking. The only side openings are fairly wide lengthwise ones immediately under the eaves. The structure is reinforced with five steel I-beams that rest on cut-stone abutments that appear to have been laid dry. It also is open to vehicular traffic with a posted load limit of four tons.
The cache is located outside the bridge. There is no need to go under, around or climb the bridge. Bring a pencil
