French Creek Feeder

The canal bed beside the road is part of a channel constructed 1827-1834 to take water from Meadville to Conneaut Lake for the Erie Extension Canal. Two miles below here the Feeder crossed the creek by aqueduct.

Marker is on Cochranton Road (U.S. 322) 0.1 miles west of Shreck Road.
