You guys would enjoy a book published in the 1970's called, "Abandoned New England". Lots of history, photos and old maps. It's actually a coffee table book but a very informative and useful one.
I must say that I have been enjoying the hell out of your videos! If you ever get bored in New England, feel free to head on down to my neck of the woods GEORGIA. DUN DUN DUN!! Lots of creepy places (and people) down here.
I found out about this place online Really glad you made a video.On a side note; you're a little too preachy Reverend about your beliefs.You talk about big ugly buildings bei at places of historical significance,yet I'm sure you go shopping there!I'm a big history buff myself but I don't suscribe to the belief that we must save every piece of history, simply because it's historical.And the handful of citites under water in Sictuate reservoir.Yet you still drink RI water.Take a stand LOL
Been enjoying your videos. I'm from RI and totally agree with you. Such a shame they are tearing down every scrap of our past. New England is the oldest developed area in the states and they are plowing away all that art and history to make condos and shopping centers. Truly pathetic.
@OSueZQtheCatfreeek Yeah, building homes for people to live is pathetic. And building places where people go to buy food is truly pathetic. We should all just make teepees and live off the land. .....moron
@NinjaCthulhu you missed the point. I was responding to a message, not a post. No strawman arguement. LOL Just don't make it seem like saving that prescious rubble is so important.
@mbluemyst Yes because it's so necessary to have 3 drug stores at the same intersection or 2 mega grocery stores across the street from each other. Your a prime example of exactly what is wrong with this country.
i lived in smithfield for 28 years, i been there a few time,s,, , i belive there was indian,s there that lived next to hanton city, i read in the observer, a smithfield paper back in 1973 or 1975, there was a paper on hanton city an it had picture of indian settment of a big rock with a bowl coved out of the top,, an other thing,s about indian,s that lived there,,,i wonder if the indian killed them an moved on , an no one know ?
I'm from Smithfield Rhode Island and there are NO records of anyone who lived there. It only appears on a couple of maps around the turn of the century
I am listening with headphones and I swear I hear a growl at 2:50. Also at 6:42, as you were talking about it just being abandoned, I hear a whisper that sounds like "yes", as though "something" is agreeing with you. AND..starting at 7:22, I can hear clear talking. I don't know if it was your friend or someone else human but, I can't make out what is being said. One last thing I heard was a little laugh at 9:11. Nice, interesting video.
HMMMM thank you I will check it out and focus on those spots, you must have a more focused hearing than me, but thank you for pointing that out for me :)
The road that takes you there is DeCotis Farm Road off of Douglas Pike (highway 7), which is a new road next to Lydia Ann Road (l don't think Lydia Ann road is marked and it's an unpaved road). DeCotis Farm Road is the first street to the right after Washington Highway (highway 116) when you are traveling northbound on Douglas Pike (highway 7). I use the trail to jog. After going on DeCotis Farm Road for about 1/4 mile you'll se the trail's entrance to the right.
one of the many things I miss about home...the woods, and I never knew about this is Smithfield....I grew up in West Barrington, near Bay Spring....have you heard any weird things about that area?
Actually me too, I read that if one enters this area in the summer, most of ruins will be covered in brush and other plant life making them very hard to see. Plus, I am sure more hunters enter the area too.
Also my bro rides back there he said plague broke out there
