Weldon Creek No.3 (Hartley Steeves)

This little bridge used to have a sister, the Harris Steeves bridge, about 300 m or so along the road southwest of it, which was destroyed around 25 years ago.  You can see them both together in the archival pictures below, as well as read about the confusion  on some websites that I will (hopefully) unravel and post here when I get it sorted out.  I have added a couple of photos at the end of the page of the site of the old Harris Steeves bridge, which you can still clearly see is the remains of a covered bridge.

A neat shot of the bridge on a sweltering hot day.

Below: the site of the old Harris Steeves covered bridge which was destroyed in (1989, or 1993?)  [Note: the Provincial Archives list has it incorrectly named as the Hartley Steeves bridge that was lost, and to fire, not to the truck/snowplow that I was told destroyed it.  This list also lists a "Bull Creek bridge (Harris Steeves)" destroyed in 1989.  ** To clarify.]
