Hebron Bridge
Yes, this is the bridge that the locals refer to as Steel bridge. It is a party area on the weekends and holidays but throughout the week calms down the a nice place to take the family swimming or canoeing.

I visited this bridge and photographed it on 12-17-06. It is a great old bridge in a nice setting. Talked to a guy who grew up in the area. He said he spent his childhood at the bridge and swimming hole
