THROUGHOUT this region are many
nurseries, where some of the finest
ornamentas in the Nation are grown.
There are numerous dog kennels and
even q cattery or two. Flowers brighten
UP the landscape, especially dablias, in
fresh purples, reds, oranges and pinks.
Near the tiny hamlet of Ashton are
quite few commercial flower gardens.
No outstanding hills are encountered
until you approach Ellicott City. which
Is built partly on . very steep hill and
partly In . valley along the Patapsco
River.
Probably the best way to visit the
town Is to drive to the bottom of the
hill, across the junction Of routes 29
and 40. and into the business section.
Park your car and walk around.
Near here Is the ancient Oliver Via
duct. mentioned earlier. a part of the
original Baltimore &c Ohio line. which
played an important role in the early
railroad history OF the Nation. The
FIRST structure at this point consisted
OF three 20-foot stone arches. For
short time after 1t was opened to
trafic august 4. 1890 q precipice
about 40 feet in height, situated i'm
mediately beyond this bridge, marked
the western terminus Of the Baltimore
dE Ohio line.
This crossing was made a subject of
legislation by the General Assembly
Of Maryland. as set forth in chapter
46 OF the acts of 1880. The present
highway (route 40), then known as
the Baltimore and Fredericktown
turnpike, was an important artery of
communication which long antedated
the railroad and was subjected to very
heavy trafic movement.
The triple-arched structure re-
manned in service until 1853, where
upon two Of the arches were removed
and the central pier left in the mid
die OF the highway. 1t Is believed that
this change was motivated by difiiculty
caused by the passaged of loaded hay
wagons through the opening. such
loads, on several occasions, becoming
blocked underneath the bridge and re-
quiring unloading as a preliminary to
further movement.
Incident TO the change Of 1858, two
new spans were placed. using the old
arch pier as one Of the substructure
units. These spans remained in serv-
inn until 1aon uhap thew uere re-.
placed with deck plate girder spans,
and in 1911 ~ beam spans were in
stalled.
