Geocache Description:

Welcome to Brunswick County, VA


Wanna share a local treasure? Take a drive down Iron Bridge Road, State Route 715, and cross the Meherrin River via the Gholson Bridge.


This single-lane iron bridge was built in 1864 by the Wrought Iron Bridge Co., Canton, Ohio and still remains open to traffic today. In fact, you may be surprised at the amount of traffic for this rural area. So, be very attentive and careful when seeking this cache.


The Gholson Bridge was posted to the National Register of Historic Places on May 5, 1978 and continues to be a place of local pride.



This is a log only cache. BYOP


Park on the widened shoulder at the North end of the bridge.
