mill site

[bourassa5]

i did some research walked down a mile on an old road and came apon he mill site that sits next to a stream, their is as i believe two house sites as well within 100 yards of the mill. one house site is virtually right next to and got flooded by water as we have had a lot of rain here lately. the other house site does not look clearly like a house site but their were a pile of bricks in the middle so I'm guessing that is a fireplace inside the house plus their is a small hole all the way in the back of the property where the house was probably like 35 yards away next to a corner of a stone wall, is this out house or a well? I'm not sure how close wells were to the old houses. Well anyway to my ultimate question. are the mill sites worth detecting? and if so how should i start the hunt and what am i likely to find? i no that the house sites will be worth and since it was a mill I'm guessing that their was a lot of traffic around this place but it is surprisingly a mile from a major road, back in the day. and i have pictures but they are on my ifone is their any way to post them here form the iphone thanks for any help!

If it is an old mill site, then nickels and pennies will be the more probable finds. Look all around the site until you find a hot spot and work it to death. Good Luck.
