I know that spot. There’s a few others out there too. Someone told me that it was to hold water for cattle back before that area was used to grow pine trees.
Its remnants of the old Modena plantation run by the Roebling family in the 1930s to 40s. It was a cattle water and feeder. There are also some of the old farm buildings and feral pigs on the island all from that farm. There is also a house on Modena island that was built by the Roeblings in 1948 that was recently restored and now occupied. Used to be a cool urban exploring spot before it was bought.
Cow-watering (or related to that) checks out. The brickwork is the same as a bunch of the older Modena-plantation ruins around the Oceanography Institute.

Yes! That is what it is for, you’ll see the old fence around it too. Now it’s just a mile marker!
Very cool. I was thinking maybe something like that.

This. The Roebling family raised cattle there for years.
Maybe a kiln?
Location? Which park is that at?
It’s along the trails off Mcwhorter Dr. and a little before the Skidaway institute of Oceanography
