Cobbled Stone Castle

Sometimes the most interesting things are the unexpected, the unlooked for, the enigmatic creation on the side of the road with no explanation whatsoever. This is exactly what we came upon while driving through the countryside near Forestport, New York. Just a few feet off the road, I couldn’t help but notice the Cobbled Stone Castle, but just exactly what it was, I never did find out. It wasn’t tucked away in some hidden spot, au contraire, the Castle seemed to be inviting passersby to stop and look, and so we did. We walked around the miniature castle surrounded by eclectic yard décor, discussed possible themes, reasons, and inspirations, and took this handful of pictures. My curiosity was piqued, but never satisfied, and even a search on the internet didn’t turn anything up. I probably could have pursued it with the town locals, but sometimes it is better to just let the mystery be.
