Less than an hour outside of Boston lies the remains of ancient Celtic
visitors. Monoliths and rows of boulders aligned with North and South
may have been left behind by the same people who built the structures in
an area called America's Stonehenge in Salem, New Hampshire. There
have been no archeological surveys or digs in this area as far as we know,
and the rangers at this park do not even want to tell visitors where to
find the structures. Vandalism over the years has destroyed much
of the site today, which may explain why the ranger we talked to was so
secretive. We hope to record what remains visible at the surface
so if there is any archeological interest later, we will still have photos
of what may have been destroyed in the mean time.
