Hallowell, Maine (Kennebec riverfront)

BOTTLE DIGGING GRAY AREA CONFIRMED

Where: Maine · approx. 44.29, -69.79 (vicinity only)

Why this spot: 1880s+ Sanborn-mapped town on Kennebec River, tidal

What turns up: Granite-shipping and brick riverfront-block dumps: embossed druggist and soda bottles, stoneware, and hardware on the Kennebec tidal banks.

Access: Gray area.

Maine private ownership extends to the low-tide line, so the Kennebec intertidal here is mostly private and needs the owner's permission; the bed of the navigable Kennebec is state-owned with artifact removal restricted, and townsite uplands are private. State law protects archaeological sites and unmarked burials.
