ARCHAEOLOGICAL SITE

Wooden palisades, carved
pou
(memorial posts) and a
carved gate help bring this
pa
site to life. An hour-long loop walk across grassy hills
passes barely discernible archaeological remains but affords terrific views of the sur-
rounding countryside. From the city head southwest on Taradale Rd and Gloucester St.
Turn right into Springfield Rd just before the river.
