Rock walls have been used for thousands of years to delineate property lines. As modern building techniques evolved or property is consolidated throughout the years, their importance decreases and they are abandoned. I always found it interesting when I come across a rock wall where I least expect it: What did the original property look like? Why a boundary here?
This is the eighth in a series highlighting forgotten rock walls that I have come across, usually while geocaching. The others are available at the following link:
Listing of Forgotten Rock Wall caches
This wall seems to have survived all of the changes that have happened around it. This land was once part of the Alderney Dairy, the name lives on the identification of the area on the electrical poles. Note that this cache is best searched for outside regular business hours
Congrats to Ragtime Fan and swampland'r on the FTF!
