Thanks for your post and picture. Wouldn't it be great if you were able to find out some of the history of that spring house? Did someone live near it, and are there other building foundations in the area? Just imagine all the work that went into building it.

I grew up a bit north of you (Warren County), and as a young kid spent many summer days fishing small brook trout streams in the Alleghenies, and from time to time I also came across "treasures" from a bygone era that had been lost and forgotten in the forest.

My great uncle, whom I lived with for a time in a log cabin, and I often walked some distance in the woods to where there was a spring where we got some of our drinking water. (I remember that my great aunt, who was born in the late 1800's, was even originally from Kersey, or somewhere closeby there.) Your picture brings back many fond memories. Thanks.
