Hopkinton State Park (MA.) Stone Ruins Pt. 6- Fish Cairn + More


Hopkinton State Park (MA.) Stone Ruins Pt. 6- Fish Cairn + More

Cairns/ stone rows which once again, in this case, also function as the ruins of ceremonial/ hillside enclosures.  Since part 1 of this series most of these stone-works are part of the same site (quite a large site- making me wonder how much modern development of the State Park has disturbed the continual distribution of these stone ruins around the park).
