Stone Arch Bridge, Blair Ontario

Blair Stone Arch Bridge

Blair Stone Arch Bridge on Bowman Creek

This is the old Stone Arch Bridge that crosses Bowman Creek just outside Blair Ontario. It is visible from Blair Rd. just before Fountain Street. I have read that it was probably built in the mid 1800’s for a rail line servicing the mills in the area.

It is a beautiful hidden gem and hopefully it will receive some sort of maintenance so that it doesn’t succumb to the forces of nature.

  1. I’ve tried to photograph this bridge. This is what I had hoped my photo would look like, but sadly my version was destined for the trash can. So lovely!

    • Thanks for your kind comments Vanessa. I ended up with quite a few destined for the trash also. This shot is a blend of several different exposures and tweaks in Lightroom and Photoshop.
