Turtle-tad

 
I find this possible structure so interesting. Sort of looks like a cross between a tadpole and a turtle. It's a low to the ground wall (tail) and it has a rounded end - that looks like the head of a turtle. Given the history of this piece of land - there was a Native American woman married to a free African-American man around 1800. She along with their eight children died before 1820. This area also has a large wall along with a couple of rockpiles and what's lefdt of a very large and old chestnut tree.

  1. An interesting find. Maybe it is a bit like a short stretch of wall with a place to sit at one end, or a place to put something. I am trying to remember where I saw that before.
