Cottonwood Creek Road

The 1908 State Highway No. 7 heading west out of Davenport, ran northwest on what is now Wheatland Road N. and then crossed Gunning Rd. west to the creek. In 1911, Creek Rd. had passed Wheatland Rd as the west entrance to Davenport. By 1918, this entire section was bypassed by the new highway unto Davenport.

Until recently, there was an original steel truss bridge that over Cottonwood Creek. This road became a part of the Sunset Highway for about 3 years when the new highway into Davenport from the west was built.
