Having trouble finding homesite

[Nathan W]

Here's a LiDAR of park woods. This is another area that an old timer said was a house in 1800s. I found the privy's ( circled in yellow) I've found a few items around them. The privy's are lined with bricks just under the soil.

The zigzag yellow line is ( the zigzag grey lines) they are what seems a man made trench . They are very straight . I've detected above them and left and right/below of privy's . I can't seem to find the sweet spot. Could the house be further away . I have hit this area many times but no luck of any stuff besides iron signals. . If I go to far south of the privy's it's low and a large creek is there. Can see where it floods Inland some. As many times as I've been I would think by now I would have been right on it. Am I doing something wrong here?

From growing up in my younger years the privy's were not too far from the house.
Most homes had them closer than 100 ft from the backdoor.
Brick lined privy, that sounds like a well.

Ever shove a probe down in the center?

No I have not . That trench is interesting and it runs to the creek.

I'm going to hit it up near there around my lunch time break , will see. I keep track of where I've already searched and try different spots
