What listing means for this property

Sites (archaeological sites, battlefields, landscapes) are often listed with a restricted address to protect them from looting or disturbance. Listing is honorary for private owners; federal undertakings on or near the site go through Section 106 review, and state laws may protect burials and artefacts regardless of listing.

General information, not legal or tax advice. Rules change; confirm with your State Historic Preservation Office or a qualified adviser.
