There is this site. I was going to hit that this Monday & Tuesday BUT I just came back from checking out the old park near my house that you wouldn't even know is there unless you really looked and it is old. I think that is the place I will be doing instead. I am pretty sure it is city property. I will check the Assessor's database in my city to make sure. Anyone here can do this. Put in your favorite search engine, Assessor's database, (your city,state) and whala! It'll give you the owner's name, property value, date it was built, etc. I went inside and the first thing I liked is hardly anyone frequents it and it is secluded to a degree. I noticed as you go into the entrance it has old hitching post stones and other old stones at the entrance. I went around the back and it is somewhat bigger than I thought. I immediately noticed an old foundation wall and when I went around to the back I saw two sets of old stairs leading up to a building that of course is no longer there. There were a few more hitching posts near those stairs too. It's funny because around that area is a big slope that butts into Rt 10 and it is busy as ever with cars speeding by and this place has just quietly receded into the folds of time with most people not even giving it a second thought unless you're a MD.

I am excited about hitting this place and I think it could yield some great finds. Much more so than the other place I mentioned above. Sometimes it is not written in stone. You just have to swing and let the coil test it out to get the real facts. The other place could yield better. I was going to a cleaning job in CT and as I am driving down this road I am noticing the trees and I realize that they are quite old and then from asking and researching about public properties it just hits me that along this 2-3 mile stretch of road that it is also lined on both sides with stone walls and in between those stone walls and the public road is about 6-7' of land on either side of the road. I could hit those spots! There has to be some old stuff there from when it was just a dirt road ridden by horse and buggy carriages.

There is also from where I hit this road that I talked about just a minute ago down about a
 
Here's an overhead view of the park that seems promising to me.
