Thomaston, Naugatuck River clock town

BOTTLE DIGGING GRAY AREA CONFIRMED

Where: Connecticut · approx. 41.67, -73.07 (vicinity only)

Why this spot: 1880s+ Sanborn-mapped town on Naugatuck River in the upper valley

What turns up: Seth Thomas clock-works fill plus privies behind the 1880s village; expect sodas, medicines and stoneware in mill-worker household dumps by the river.

Access: Gray area.

The bed of the Naugatuck River below ordinary high water may be Connecticut public-trust land where removing relics is restricted; the clock-works and village uplands are private and need the owner's permission; state law protects archaeological sites and unmarked burials.
