I'm going out tommorrow to carry it home, but like I said, it's a 1/2 mile out there, with nothing but a foot trail to the area. The block is smooth on all sides with no sign of a casting company.....:confused:

I've had the property for 11 years or so. The area has remnants of an old road system, not used since the early 1900's, so it's pretty grown over. An arial shot of the location shows the definition of the old roadbeds. The town itself was established in 1764 and there was a quartz quarry used for the early roadways as a gravel base in the near general area. there is a shallow impression nearby, posibley (sp) a cellar hole? Other than that, it's a mystery, it's a half mile to the nearest road......

I just came across it hunting behind my house today up here in NH. It's still out there, darn thing weighs more than I cared to lug out along with my gun..... I'm going back out this weekend with my metal detector and see what else might be out there. Any estimate on the age of this thing?

Hi, figured I'd start here. I'm not a blacksmith, not even sure this is related but figured you guys would point me in the right direction. I found this out in the woods today and am curious what it may have been used for? , There is two more views if you use the right arrow on the site. Thanks, Mark
