Little Bridges # 1215 West Okement River Too Traditional Cache

My second Little Bridges cache on the West Okement River, this one being upstream of the Meldon Reservoir. This bridge is of solid construction and looks as though it was designed to take a significant load. Unfortunately it is now a bridge to nowhere. Until fairly recently this bridge led to a permissive path which allowed walkers to walk around the whole of Meldon Reservoir, but sadly that permission was withdrawn, so the bridge leads nowhere!

I would like to thank the Dartmoor National Park Authority for their kind permission to place this cache, which has been placed according to the geocaching guidelines.

The Little Bridges series was started by Stanthews in 2009 to highlight small footbridges in remote parts of Wiltshire. Since then the series has been expanded by others all over the country and starting to spread fast, Damian from Winter Foxes has created and updates a list of cachers who has found 10 or more little bridges and can be found here, if you would like to add to the series, please contact Stan on stanthews@aol.com and he will give you a number for your bridge, to qualify, the bridge must be a foot bridge too small for vehicles, please make sure your title exactly matches “Little Bridges # xx then name” including spaces so it will get picked up and added to Damian’s list.
