Theres a mysterious stone wall that I found in the middle of nowhere in the forest with no road access that I've been investigating for years and nobody else cares!
There are other weird characteristics nearby that are visible on Google maps
Why? Who made you?
Edit: Here is a link to a gallery of photos I've taken of some segments of the wall:
https://removed/gallery/KkPj5H1
Here is an annotated map of the area with unusual features, some of which may be natural:
Here is the location in google maps. The sat imagery has recently been updated: https://www.google.com/maps/@-32.2335528,116.1823985,644m/data=!3m1!1e3?entry=ttu
I've been out to this location 10 or so times, and in all my digging, I haven't found a single railroad spike or tie, so I really don't think it's railroad-related. The bush is extremely dense, especially near the creek, and often impossible to walk through, hence the photos are from a distance.
The stone wall is not mortared, and I really dont think it would bear the weight of a train even in its brand new condition.
Its very old and someone put a lot of work into it, near as I can tell its at least 50m long, maybe much longer
I did find one very large iron nail, about 1m in length, and took it home with me, but I don't have it any more.
On the raised band of black stone, the stones are about melon or basketball sized, much larger than railway ballast which us usually not larger than a fist. It could be a natural formation.
How does it line up with the railway map here?
The site in question lies right in the middle of the big void area between Armadale and Brookton.
Its not impossible that there was a temporary timber-getting railway there, but the hills are very challenging terrain, and Im just not sure a train would go there.
