Stone Wall II


Haley Farm State Park, Groton, CT

Here's another example of Caleb Haley's talent for building stone walls.  I'm not sure if any of the stones had to be cut or not.  They must have been shaped a little to get such a good fit. Either that or Caleb had a great eye for finding, sorting, and knowing just where to place each boulder he found. Still, it must have taken quite a bit of time back in the late 1800's to construct this wall.
