I hunted an 1840s Hotel site today. The Hotel has been torn down since the 1930s and it's totally overgrown now. It's really hard to hunt but I did manage to find a 1902 IHP, a coal ash shovel, and a few other relics. The horse is cast and about 5" long. It use to attach to something. No idea what though.

I believe the horse is part of an antique horse and buggy toy. Check Etsy

That site is worth some additional time...........

I think you are correct. There is a place on one of the legs where a wheel must have attached.

If it hard to hunt because everything is overgrown and you are still pulling some nice finds, then I would say the site has great potential. Congrats and good luck!
