When you get back to Goat Island, you can return to the bridge by a short way by taking the road straight aheadthrough the woods. It is best, however, to see the other views, and to do this you turn to your right, and follow the roaddirectly east. Here one sees how it was possible for the island to have reached a long way up stream, for a bar extends upbetween the currents for nearly half a mile, with a depth of water not over four feet. This also shows how it was possiblefor people to visit the island before the bridge was built.
