Where: Maine · approx. 44.0, -69.67 (vicinity only)
Why this spot: 1890s+ Sanborn-mapped town on Sheepscot River tidal estuary
What turns up: Federal-era shipping-port dumps: early black-glass and utility bottles, clay pipes, and forged hardware on the Sheepscot tidal banks below Main Street.
Access: Gray area.
Private waterfront ownership runs to the low-tide line under Maine's rule, so the Sheepscot intertidal is largely private and needs the owner's permission; the navigable riverbed is state-owned with artifact removal restricted, and townsite uplands are private. State law protects archaeological sites and unmarked burials.
