2. The Haunted and Creepy

The Assonet Ledge

All photos taken on October 14, 2010

"One of the most popular, easiest and fun hikes locally is the walk to Assonet Ledge. The ledge was a result of quarrying a unique type of granite called Arkose Granite, by the Fall River Granite Company during the 1800s. This granite was used in various construction projects that are still standing today: Fort Adams, Taunton State Hospital, New Bedford WaterWorks, New York State House in Albany and some of the Newport mansions."

The place has reported to have a dark history too. Great video of the legends of the Ledge can be seen here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7dsPqMVQb3Q
