Not sure if this is the right forum for this, but here I go:
I recently moved to a home in Illinois with a 5 acre lot. This lot is wooded in back, and the house has been vacant for about a year. A college student was living here for a few years before that, so it was not maintained very well.
Here's the interesting and weird part. My husband and I are getting ready to do some clean-up in the wooded area of the lot, and we came across something very strange that we can't seem to explain. Scattered all over the approximately 3 acre wooded area are chunks (some of them rather large) of brick chimney.
Does anyone have any ideas as to how those could have gotten there? Or why or how someone could have scattered them like that? Each chunk is pretty heavy and they are not all close to the road that runs next to the property. So I can't see that it could have been just dumping.
My curiosity is piqued!
Any ideas as to what this could be would be fun to hear!
