C-4 • The Conococheague
Bridge | 1829
In Williamsport, West of Route 63, North on Route 68, Clear Spring Road
During the Civil War, this bridge marked one of the most strategic crossings in Washington County. As you cross this bridge, with its sturdy arches holding up as well to 18-wheelers as they did to the mule-drawn wagons of the Confederate and Union Armies, you’ll see the same beautiful view of Williamsport as glimpsed by General Robert E. Lee, General Stonewall Jackson, and many times by the famous Confederate cavalryman, General J.E.B. Stuart. Less than a mile away the creek joins the Potomac, as it flows under the Conococheague Aqueduct.
