Caption: Possible site of the Matthews Farm?
Additional Description: The foundation is the only thing that remains of the Matthews Farm, and according to what I was told by a ranger at the Henry Hill Visitor Center, the foundation is located within the forested area of the Matthews Hill loop trail. I followed the trail and noticed a patch of green (keep in mind I took this photo in February) with a smaller number of trees than usual. I am not 100% on whether or not this is the farmhouse site, but it is very likely. Chances are that either this is the site of the farmhouse, or the farmhouse foundation is lost in the woodlot - inaccessible from the loop trail.
