Good find on that old dam! I'm not sure how to contact you directly, but this was a water powered cheese factory/cow farm in the village of storrsville, which was a part of the now defunct town of Dana. It was fed by Rand Brook, but was washed out in the flood of 1938, and the state tore it down in the building of Boston's water supply, by way of imminent domain. Downstream, there where multiple factories, Grist Mills, and other water powered businesses. Such a shame the state took them out, when didn't even use this land for anything! Did you happen to see any remnants of wood scraps in the area from the water power equipment?
Wow It’s so cool that you can imagine what things looked like a while ago, when it’s all covered in leaves and debris. You’ve been a big inspiration to me! You make me feel like I can explore much more! Thank you.
I live in California, and this time of the year everything is dry, brown, and ready to burn. It is so nice to see a place that is green this time of year. Looking forward to the winter rain, and the memories of clearing drains with my Dad who ran the county road department. He kept things in much better shape than they do now.
Dunno if I mentioned this in a previous comment on a vid of yours but greetings from the UK. We have a fair share of abandoned dams here too with cool history. Not a billion miles away from where I live, is the Elan (pronounced Ellen) Valley chain of reservoirs, gigantic picturesque Victorian masonry dams holding back a combined capacity of 21 billion gallons that supply water to the city of Birmingham in the Midlands of England. In an adjacent creek feeding into one of the reservoirs is a small dam called Nant-y-Gro, like a dam built for the community of workers who built the larger dams. It was purposely bombed in testing the Dambuster bombs during WW2 and the remains can still be seen to this day.
I want so badly to come over there and ride through your canals. I understand that many have been redone, repaired for leisure house boats. I live near one of our major rivers , The Arkansas, in NW Arkansas. But we have few canals.
I feel like we need Sir David Attenborough commentating on the moth/butterfly and then the river scene ... "And so we see our little flying friend dining on the nectar of these beautiful blooms ... "
From last video Post 10 I'm David a state trooper from Connecticut not too far from you talk about people breaking the law going to the lights but then we see you go through a stop sign oh, hey what is your license plate number? JK love what you're doing you went through it slowly in the middle of the night no big deal you're being safe, love what you're do keeping the roadway safe. If you're ever interested in inviting me along I can put some blue lights in your windshield and as long as I'm with you we can pull over people
David Spencer, Hey that is so awesome of you to offer to ride with post 10, sometimes when he is making the roads safer for people to travel on you notice some fools who to be honest don't seem to care that he is helping, they just see him as an obstacle to run off the road so many thanks.. and stay safe ..
The first area with the stone walls was probably an ice pond. They were quite common on farms and homesteads in New England, and NY. I enjoy your wood walks.
I would love another update on your animals! Especially the leach!!!!! Watching your do the last feeding, I was GLUED to the screen! More of the science of it, the unedited, real life aspect it extremely fascinating!
Thanks for another interesting adventure, Post 10. That blue-grey water always makes me think of sewage tainted water. There was a stream that I used to wade in that always had that appearance, with brownish foam everywhere. I learned later that that stream was one of the most polluted waterways in the suburban Atlanta area, being used as an open sewer. I cringe when I think that I probably dunked my head under the water at times.
your video reminds me of the Metal Detecting videos i follow from VT and NH.. With the stone walls, and empty stone foundations. just waiting for someone to come along and find the lost coins and buttons. 😎👍😊
You seen the infamous British horror movie "Eden Lake" (2008)? If some American production company ever decides to remake it Stateside (surprised one hasn't yet!) this would be a GREAT location for filming!
You need to come to Slateford PA and check out the falls and the old abondon mill and some old foundations. There’s also an old abandoned bridge going from PA to NJ. Amazing graffiti and a really good time!
Please keep this area updated I’d love to see a project where you “restore” a area just build up dams to make ponds ect since you know so much about water it’s kinda crazy tbh you know way more then me I’d love to see a project like this where you build your own water system or something would be kinda cool 😂
Very interesting place so the dam is made from river stones and the.place you went the other day is a smooth rock . Quite interesting geography between each
In my area where I live there have been 3 old towns underwater since they built the damn in 1962. 1 of the old towns occasionally in the summer at low level you can walk out on the lake bed and see old foundations
I watch Andrew Camaratas channel, he's in eastern New York. He does work on mostly rural properties and he comes across old stone walls in the forrest a lot.
Wish I could think of a way (besides just screenshots) I could use some of the amazing shots of beautiful scenery in Post10's videos to use as my desktop wallpaper
I've watched videos on your channel for about a year now. I know you travel to different states sometimes, I'd love to see a video from Ohio sometime. Just a suggestion, I love your videos and keep up the great work.
I JST SAW A NEW MINI CHAINSAW BY STIHL ABOUT THE SIZE OF A SMALLER CORDLESS DRILL THAT HAS YOUR NAME ALL OVER IT 🎶 THEY’RE ONLY $24.99 AND WOULD FIT ANYWHERE A BOTTLE OF WATER WOULD, ITS BAR IS ABOUT 6 INCH PERFECT SIZE FOR YOU 🤘🤪🎸
"Hey everyone......." i must smile when you say this 😉😄. You are a good guy 👈(is this ok🧐❓). I'm unsure🙄🤷♀️, i'm german😂. So what 🤷♀️. I like what you do 👍😎.

Wow! What cool research you did! Quite a history you found! Thanks!
@@cathiwim 💯
I love to see anything that's a part of history. Makes you wonder what it used to look like.
You're an archeologist too, as well as an explorer and savior of waterways. 💞
I imagine Post 10 spending his ‘off’ hours researching where there are interesting abandoned things in his area.
I'm thinking his searches would be something like Google: "culverts" AND "big spiders". 🤣
Wow It’s so cool that you can imagine what things looked like a while ago, when it’s all covered in leaves and debris. You’ve been a big inspiration to me! You make me feel like I can explore much more! Thank you.
Hi Post.
Taking you to bed with me again.
It helps me relax and slow my mind down.
I love your adventures.
Stay safe for us and your family.
Beautiful nature, culverts, flowers and insects all around. Thank you post 10. 💚💚

I'm happy when post 10 posts
" this is a extremely nice stream here "
Post 10 is a must-watch.
loved all the beauty, the info, thanks for sharing.
The first area with the stone walls was probably an ice pond. They were quite common on farms and homesteads in New England, and NY. I enjoy your wood walks.
A beautiful old place. Just see how nature always wins in the end though. Thanks post 10 for showing us this place - take care and stay safe :-)
Very green. Remains are more visible when the leaves have fallen. But it's cool to be able to "read" the landscape.
Another fascinating video, thank you Post 10 - your videos are always excellent quality. Sending love from England x
Man! Post 10 has been busy here lately and I'm happy to be here watching! You go Post 10!
Just woke up and now i can watch this
Just got off the night shift and I can watch before bed :) POST10, good for relaxing anytime!!
How funny, it is just night time over hear. Thying to go sleeping bij 30deg Celcius. 😥
" trees are a crop "
@@megaglowz8540 weird huh?
@@dirkdiggler1242 how are they not? just a slow growing crop.
I would love another update on your animals!
Especially the leach!!!!! Watching your do the last feeding, I was GLUED to the screen!
More of the science of it, the unedited, real life aspect it extremely fascinating!
Congrats on 200K subscribers! Keep on posting amazing content! A big thank you for your time and professionality

Would be interesting to see what the county records say about the property, and who had build those structures and when.
4:02 thought post 10 was about to go in to the Dr Malcolm speech about nature breaking down barriers.
Nice work man thank you for sharing. Those baby fish were so cute 😍
You have a skill set unmatched by anyone. Amazing, Post.
your video reminds me of the Metal Detecting videos i follow from VT and NH.. With the stone walls, and empty stone foundations. just waiting for someone to come along and find the lost coins and buttons. 😎👍😊
I love watching your videos, so relaxing to me! Of course very interesting, with out a doubt!
I love these!! Nebraska says great video.
I am at the dentist and I'm trying to watch this lol! Cant wait to see it again with sound!! 200k!🤯🥳
All your videos are interesting and a lo0t of them are a lesson in history!
You live in a green green place !! Makes me want to move Massachusetts.
That was a very interesting video thanks👌
That was a nice visit, I wish I could metal detect the property!
Woods are so awesone there...
You seen the infamous British horror movie "Eden Lake" (2008)? If some American production company ever decides to remake it Stateside (surprised one hasn't yet!) this would be a GREAT location for filming!
Very beautiful nature.
Very sad! All that spreading Knotweed is not a good sign.
Any ideas where would be a good spot to magnet fish in Massachusetts?
Super Watertunnel
You need to come to Slateford PA and check out the falls and the old abondon mill and some old foundations. There’s also an old abandoned bridge going from PA to NJ. Amazing graffiti and a really good time!
Well done, channel is maturing nicely.
hi Post, from The Beaches in Toronto, Canada. edited to add, happy to see the famous Post 10 finger pointer
Your awesome 😎
Would love to see what that building or house looked like in its prime :) I bet it was beautiful
It would be nice to have someone fly over and use Lidar...
the scans would be awesome!
Think that's how they find all those Aztec cities in the jungles
Congratulations!! 200k!!👍👍
Beautiful Spot💗
I wish the drought would go away so you can clear drains again but great video either way
New England sure is the most beautiful part of the US, plus they have all 4 seasons !
I'm glad this was uploaded, I was bored trying to find something to watch on yt
Super interesting...a piece of history....would love to have seen it in its original state...
Please keep this area updated I’d love to see a project where you “restore” a area just build up dams to make ponds ect since you know so much about water it’s kinda crazy tbh you know way more then me I’d love to see a project like this where you build your own water system or something would be kinda cool 😂
Very interesting place so the dam is made from river stones and the.place you went the other day is a smooth rock . Quite interesting geography between each
The races for old mills are usually still around, and aren't too hard to find if you know what to look for.
Would love to see this in late Fall or winter when the absence of foliage would make it easier to see all the stone walls and the lay of the land.
From the lake drain saga to this. Is there anything you won’t try. Love to see more videos of places like this.
In my area where I live there have been 3 old towns underwater since they built the damn in 1962. 1 of the old towns occasionally in the summer at low level you can walk out on the lake bed and see old foundations
Probably dace, Cardinal flower, nice!
Great vid. Thanks!!
All of your video's are interesting, post...
I watch Andrew Camaratas channel, he's in eastern New York. He does work on mostly rural properties and he comes across old stone walls in the forrest a lot.
Congratulations on 200k subscribers
Something very relaxing about listening to post10's stream of consciousness. Or musings, on pretty much everything.
Wish I could think of a way (besides just screenshots) I could use some of the amazing shots of beautiful scenery in Post10's videos to use as my desktop wallpaper
Yesssss so happy to see your notification today 💜
Cool!!
ah yes there have got to be spiders, it's not an adventure without spiders.
Another interesting video Post10!
Congrats on 200k
How many times have you LATER realized a big spider hitched a ride on you?
I'm getting shivers down my spine just thinking about it. 🕷️🕷️
I have never found one on me from a culvert, just from walking threw webs in the forest, sometimes I never see the spider I notice a bite later on
Keep it up! Love you my man
Interesting
Really find your videos interesting post10 great work fella 👌
Where in America are you? I’m from the uk 🇬🇧
I've watched videos on your channel for about a year now. I know you travel to different states sometimes, I'd love to see a video from Ohio sometime. Just a suggestion, I love your videos and keep up the great work.
Love the daily uploads keep it up! Also how's the lake drain?
Congrats on 200k!
Might be interesting to do some metal detecting
I find the history really interesting
I swear what would you do if culverts didn’t exist 😮
Dam, that's sweet.
Bruh post 10 is like detox for life 🤣🤣 for a few minutes you get to enjoy nature history and just relax 😊👍

Thanks for the heart post 10 never got one before 😃 I’ve been watching you since 2017

I JST SAW A NEW MINI CHAINSAW BY STIHL ABOUT THE SIZE OF A SMALLER CORDLESS DRILL THAT HAS YOUR NAME ALL OVER IT 🎶 THEY’RE ONLY $24.99 AND WOULD FIT ANYWHERE A BOTTLE OF WATER WOULD, ITS BAR IS ABOUT 6 INCH PERFECT SIZE FOR YOU 🤘🤪🎸
Love to see the frogs.
"Hey everyone......." i must smile when you say this 😉😄. You are a good guy 👈(is this ok🧐❓). I'm unsure🙄🤷♀️, i'm german😂. So what 🤷♀️. I like what you do 👍😎.

Maybe a fish farm
You rock!
