I believe this to be the homestead of the Rood family in Jupiter.The chimney is the most prominent feature.There are remains of a thick walled small structure approx 4'X4' and a concrete encased rusted metal tank that was probably a cistern.I also found a well.I would guess this was from the late 1920's to early 30's.Its about a half mile walk one way.
