Would this type of wall be authentic in North/South Carolina? (1 Viewer)

[Cornwallis]

Would you find these types of walls around dwellings / farms in North or South Carolina during the 18th Century (War of Independence period) or are they more from typical in the northern states?

Our stone walls in New England tend to be of rounder stones left over from the glaciers moving them around. As most farm stone walls are "dry" w/o mortar, they aren't very high, nor very regular.

I found a couple of photos of old walls in the south. Try these links.

This one looks close to your model.

Some stone walls were topped with cris-crossed rail fences as well. Hope this helps.
