History

An ancient fortification in a bend of Beaver Creek was first surveyed by Alfred Beckley in 1837. Isaac Craig mapped it a year later and estimated the then-fallen stone walls were 7 feet thick and 6 feet high. The walls of the large enclosure, with a design similar to Middle Woodland era forts, are now gone, and only trace archeological evidence links early Native Americans to the site.
