IMG_3892.JPG IMG_3890.JPG IMG_3883.JPG Metal detected under the first of two dams here in town today on the North Branch of the Rancocas Creek. Has been very dry so water levels are low. A mill and forge were nearby back in the day. Managed to find an old anchor or maybe cultivator blade?, some old pieces of iron hardware, several pieces of iron ore, and two old flat/sad irons.
