The Boatyard

[steelheadwill]

I really enjoy seeing the scenery shots in everyones posts, so I got a few of my favorite hunting grounds.
This is a boatyard with historic reference back to 1660.
The stone piles are ballast from abandoned hulks, beams still visible in one, many coral heads present, and they ain't from around these parts.
The shipways have both buried wood beams & old steel tracks.
The wall with ladder is at the end of the old 'Public Way' to the water.
Found a 3rd 'Spanish War Veteran' Medal, The largest cross. This one backmarked, 'Pilgrim Badge Co, Boston Ma' started in 1915. Three's the charm!
A 1940 Canada 25C, Glad I researched it & found that it's silver, sure looks like copper!
interesting copper 'Fleur de Lis' Hinge,
Brass sash buckle, suspender clip, plumb bob, and various lead objects/whatsits.
Thanks for looking & Great digs to You All!
