Towhead Creek Bridge

Towhead Creek is a small tributary of the Wakarusa River that flows between Shawnee and Osage counties. A neighborhood known as Towhead was also on the county line of Shawnee and Osage south of Wakarusa with a school located at 125th and Lewelling.

This bridge is located between the former Jason Stewart and John C. Blood properties over Towhead Creek, west of Wakarusa. It's possible this bridge was built around 1915 by John C. Blood.
