This site near Kola in the Rural Municipality of Wallace-Woodworth was once occupied by a bridge over Pipestone Creek. The overgrown approaches leading up to the bridge and its stone-and-concrete piers are still intact; a concrete beam, presumably from the bridge span, lies nearby in the creek bed.
