So far I have discovered that the land my phenological site is placed on was cleared of trees, it was sold to Mr. Daniel Bowne in 1810 who farmed the land and kept livestock. At some point in the mid-1800s, Spear Street was established and ran past the west side of the property as it continues to do today. Then in 1937, an ariel view of the land was photographed. Spear Street could still be seen going past the property, but the most interesting thing that it showed was that trees started to grow back on the land. Also, the small forest that is there today is shown to have once been extensive and surrounded by farmland.
