Back to Townsend Hill Pepperell

Thought I would give this area one last look. It did not disappoint my expectation of disappointment. But there are things going on with the stone walls in this area that are worth noticing. After the previous visit, I posted a picture of a pile located where a short bit of wall ended. I kept thinking I was seeing it again and was actually seeing other examples. Here is the first example I saw the previous time, taken on this most recent walk:

Aside from the rock pile: note that the wall (back left of photo) actually continues to the right after a break. 
This pattern of a wall ending and continuing in bits and pieces after the ridge dies out, was repeated in other places.  Something like this:

Here it is again:

I was particularly taken with one bit of "wallism", where a couple of decrepit piles occur next to a break, and then the wall turns a corner, runs briefly down to the lower place, then stops:

Just at the left edge of the above picture, several old piles:

Let's have another look at that from near the break:

 

There were also some much older walls integrated in with these "fresh" ones. All worth a closer look.  

Added, to clarify the wall damage at one end:
