Where: Maine · approx. 43.91, -69.82 (vicinity only)
Why this spot: 1890s+ Sanborn-mapped town on Kennebec River, tidal
What turns up: Premier shipbuilding-yard refuse: forged ship spikes and fittings, black-glass and utility bottles, and clay pipes in shore dumps below the Kennebec yards.
Access: Gray area.
Maine private waterfront title extends to the low-tide line, so the Kennebec intertidal along the yards is mostly private and needs the owner's permission; the bed of the navigable Kennebec is state-owned where removing historic artifacts is restricted, and townsite uplands are private. State law protects archaeological sites and unmarked burials.
