This is a rare occasion that I am able to see something from the satellite image. If I zoom in on the cross hair in the above, I see:
which really does look like a big rock pile. Now I am even more curious to get to this spot.
This is about rock piles and stone mound sites in New England. A balance is needed between keeping them secret and making them public. Also arrowheads, stone tools and other surface archaeology.

An interesting point about Heath Hen.
On old maps they identify the area as "heathen".
Also, there was at least one native village near Robbins Street.
Well I went there this weekend in the snow. Saw very little. Could not find anything on the ground to match the satellite view. Boxboro never disappoints, but it came close.
Looks to me like these were stones displaced when they built the dirt road - there are more of them to the SW on the other side of it.
