Geocache Description:

Easy Park and Grab, Parking is advisable at West end of Bridge. Bring your Writing Stick. You are Looking For a Magnetic Key Box attached to the Bridge.

Since the original owner of this Cache has been AWOL since July of 2012 and the original cache was archived and probably destroyed in the recient Bridge renovation. I have Placed a New cache on the site of the original.

 Here is the original discription:

Just another micro on a bridge, or is it ??? Tindall Bridge built in 1915 by the Champion Iron Co. spans 332 feet across the scenic Sandusky river. Its not often you run into a one lane bridge so long and in this style. Take a chance to visit it before its gone ... Oh and by the way this bridge is featured on hauntedohio .com as being haunted by a weeping woman in white, This is a neat park and grab in my opinion.

More History.....

Sam Tannyhill murdered a young waitress in Fremont, Ohio in 1955. He was sentenced to death and died in the Ohio electric chair in November 1956. The story goes, that he was robbing a diner and the waitress knew his mother and called him by name. He took her to Tindall Bridge and that is where the murder occured. Here is a link to his Picture:  https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/113967848/samuel-woodrow-tannyhill.

 Death is still finding its way to the vicinity of this bridge as evident by the wooden cross memorial by the small park on the East side of the river.

Bridge is now completely Repainted and restored. Bring Your Writing Stick CONGRATS to JenOvations for the FTF!
