Just thought the "stone wall" quote from Maine Urban Forestry was funny
"Interesting Features: Although black locust is not an important timber tree in the United States, it is used for a wide variety of products and is planted for many specialized purposes. The wood is heavy closegrained, strong and very durable. It is used for fence posts, poles, railroad ties, ship timber, tree nails for wooden ship construction, boxes, crates and stakes. It is said by some native New Englanders to last “3 years longer than a stone wall.”
Oh, Was thinking that one side probably has embedded gravel in it that won't show with the metal detector..be careful!
