Thompson Mill Road Bridge
Posted November 28, 2008, by Evelyn Davis, Bob Davis, Evelyn Elliott (zero2juliet [at] mindspring [dot] com)

Crosses Mulberry River north of Winder. Wood plank bridge surface. New highway route (GA 211)and concrete bridge that replaced it was built in 1970. Our coordinates 34.06192 N, 83.78526 W. Probable former mill site just downstream shows remains of stone dam.
