Archaeologists to descend on Highpoint, seeking farmhouse foundation

A group of amateur and professional archaeologists will look for the foundation of a mid-1800s farmhouse on Highpoint when they examine where York County is planning to put a parking lot.

Members of the local chapter of the Society for Pennsylvania Archaeology have already conducted a general archaeological study of Highpoint, a plot of land seized by the county for a proposed park of about 725 acres in Lower Windsor Township.
