Went to this great site this afternoon for the second time. Here's the front view I guess you could call it of the that root cellar
In this second pic are my finds today.Don't know what the top item is ?! I wonder if anyone can put a date on that buckle
Dan,I brought that damn wheat penny home today.I don't have enough interest in it right now to rub the dirt off to see the date :-)
I found this new homestead just this evening as it started to get dark in the woods.I'm lucky I was able to this pic with it's relatively good sharpness. I have quite a bit of experience with Photoshop so if I can get it half way sharp and exposed half decent I can usually make up for any other problems with the photo.At first I thought it was a springhouse but don't think so although it was directly above the spring.Half of it is below ground level with that lower window almost at ground level.
Interesting enough the house foundation was directly above the spring and this structure by about 8 yards. I later found a well about 15 yards below this root cellar and off to the left. My only find here so far is a wheat penny,bummer. I left it lay on a stone of the root cellar.I found it between two of the rocks in the lower left portion of this photo.
Beautiful location in open woods,very little weeds but steamy hot this evening.

A wheat penny is a great find from a first new site! That means there is silver admist!
