Where: New Hampshire · approx. 43.45, -71.22 (vicinity only)
Why this spot: 1880s+ Sanborn-mapped town on Alton Bay, the southern arm of Lake Winnipesaukee
What turns up: Steamboat-landing and summer-resort refuse: aqua and amber bottles, soda and beer bottles, ironstone and stoneware sherds, clay pipes, and buttons and coins around the old railroad wharf, hotel sites, and dumps at the head of Alton Bay.
Access: Gray area.
New Hampshire framing: Lake Winnipesaukee is a Great Pond held by the State in public trust, and its bed at Alton Bay is state-owned where removing historic artifacts is restricted. The shoreline uplands, hotel lots, and old wharf grounds are private and need the owner's permission. State law protects archaeological sites and unmarked burials.
