Anyone had any luck around chimneys that are still standing although the house has been reduced to dust?
My dads first cousin owns a 50 acre parcel of land about 36.5 seconds down the road from my house and there is a rock chimney right at the tree line 20 ft off the road. It's so close to the road, the drainage ditch begins to level off into the woods at the base of the chimney. Yeah, basically half of the yard of the former house and half the foundation footprint was graded for the drainage ditch running beside the road.
I have permission from my first cousin-once removed to hit it up any time I please.
Just curious what other people have found around standing chimney remnants. I was able to look at an aerial photo from 1962. The house had already deteriorated by 1962. Chimney made of flat rocks. Only god knows how old.
