Sandfell

I visited the abandoned farm of Sandfell.  The outlines of some buildings, a tree, and the old cemetery are left.  It was only abandoned in 1945 after more than 700 years of occupation.

IMG_0478 Much of the farmland has been over-topped with glacial out-wash over the centuries.

Old grave markers.  The last burial was sometime in the 1950s or 1960s.
