Oxly Military Road Bridge
Posted November 20, 2005, by phillip little (RainKings39)

When I was a child,during the 60's and 70', we would dive off this bridge as a sort of rite of passage and for just good ole fun. You could perfect your shallow dive by skimming over the cement sections laying in the water.
