No I don't see bridges. There is however an old road I think along the dike where it crosses the culvert that was once a dam

With kindest regards

They are all ditched, (and most were done by hand) from higher ground towards a stream to carry the water away. They do have small bridges crossing the ditches to get across for crops, yours seems much different. Can you see any old remmants of small bridges for horses or tractors? I'm not sure what you have there but my guess is it's not for hay. The family farm in the picture might have information. Definitely interesting.

>> For anyone who's curious about the wetland I refer to click the link below and look at it satellite view. This is crown land. It is not a marsh. No cattails. There is saggitaria latifolia at the east end. The dike doesn't contain it but is along the access channel landward. From what I can see in the channels now is potomogeton mostly. No sign of cranberry David. I think it is too basic for that. It is on a line of the Windsor deposit I believe (gypsum). There was a dam at the eastern most end - not there now - culverted open.
