Yeah this is a rabbit hole, but im gonna chase it until i get to the bottom, or until i get a reason why.
So topos for this site showed 2 structures from 1904 to 1953. Nothing post 53 to 70. Imagery from 70 showed open land w appx 5 trees big enough to be seen by sat). Now it's in a new woods, behind a development started in mid 80's. I was searching in all metal for a while looking for iron foundation droppings, nothing significant to report. Near the base of the largest tree (all old roots still exposed, no fill anywhere) were the last set of beeps of the day, comin in at around nickel.
Basically this whole thing is some type of rigged contraption holding on to a deep rebar piece. The top of the guidewire/handle piece was about 2 inches down. This handle on the top of a long bolt, bolted together in an L bracket sandwich with a topper to a piece of rebar. The rebar by itself then went way down into clay, literally in the middle of a tangled triangle of three wrist-sized roots to the adjacent tree. The roots and darkness stopped my dig. The bottom is now about deep as my lower leg. If someone can give a plausible construction answer as to why someone would jimmy-rig a handle together onto a piece of rebar and then bury it...I won't have to dig to China lol..
For reference, the pics series attached zoomed out to zoomed in, n came out sideways sorry
