From Curt Hoffman:
In going through the information on Massachusetts sites at the NEARA
Archive, I found a listing for a “Dogwood Road” site in Ashland, with no
accompanying information except a site location. Since this is my
home town – but GoogleMaps lists no such street there -- I decided to
have a look yesterday. It turns out that the site is located at the end
of Dogwood Lane, in Hopkinton State Park (but in Ashland). While the
snow was deep enough that I didn’t want to get closer to the site, I did
take some pictures from the road. There is a stone row, with what
appear to be a couple of large piles, and on the far side there is a
split boulder. The latter was half-full of snow, so I don’t know
whether it has any rocks filling it. I plan to return there once the
snow clears to check!
Curt, I walk that area all the time and may be able to provide further insight on sites near where you were (once the glacier retreats, that is). You can e-mail me at b_downing@verizon.net.
