Unearthing Hidden Treasures At An Enchanting Virginia Farm Filled With Adorable Critters

Today finds us deep in the hills of western Virginia metal detecting and exploring new permissions. We start out on a farm that has two hand dug, stone-lined, water wells and evidence of bottle dumps and old foundations. After lunch, we moved to another location to metal detect an old stone foundation deep in the woods.

This is from yesterday's hunt. I had a lot of fun and hope to get back down there again soon.

Sir how do they dig the well without it caving in? I can understand constructing a square well using wood as supports. Perhaps they dug making a square whole then replace it with a circle.

I'm always fascinated by the construction of the wells. It's hard to imagine anyone digging and stacking those stones/rocks as deep as they go. Thanks for another adventure as there is always something for me to learn.

@greamespens1460 6 ай бұрын

I had the same thought. I think perhaps they make a square hole with wood to support it and when they are coming up put the circular stones in and remove the wood.

The wagon was cobbled together from parts. What is there was not original to any truck or car because the back axel is bolted direct to the frame. No springs or suspension there. 15:34 The front was built in a similar way.

I would say that stone foundation on the side of hill was 4 making pig iron. Bring the limerock down the hill process ore that was brought in on the road by wagon or dug off the side of the hill. The horses pulling the wagons would have had big shoes. The finished iron goes out on wagons or down the hill to the mill to be floated out

@ralphwatten2426 6 ай бұрын

I wonder if that place in the woods was once some kind of roadhouse with a livery stable and a blacksmith. Those broken and removed horseshoes, lots of spoons, maybe a fenced in livestock area. I wonder too if it wasn't some kind of a dump area later on with the more modern stuff. Nice video.

Hey chigg.... I dont know how many people was on that dig. But at 11:39 looks like at top right, on the fence corner, you have three people just walking out of view. But I didn't see anyone else in the video apart from you and the farmer with his kid. I didnt see any metal detector in their hands...ghostly lol Anyway, thanks again for another good video 👍

May I suggest that the pig iron you found could be the basic iron for a blacksmith shop that was on the farm? Blacksmiths needed material to form into tools and other thingd.
