Well, Soupy, Best way I can tell you is you head west (toward the river) on 667 out of Dekoven & you get to the place where the Rail Road Tracks use to cross the road & right there on the right on the use to be tracks is a road & what I can see from my maps from the Internet the road is called "Martin Rd." When we was down there this past summer & if you just turn onto this road on the right there is a handmade No Trespassing sign. You know where I'm talking about?? Well, up that road or told tracks there is a bend where the tracks use to be & the old tracks start now heading North/East. Well, In that bend is a Bluff (I'm taking there is a bluff there??) called "Anvil Rock" Is that land owned by someone? & if so, Is there anyway the owner will let us explore it & for others to explore it too? We don't want to hunt it or mess up the area. If anything if there is any trash there we will pack it out in small bit's. We just like to see if it's a place interesting enough to share with others that like hiking & the outdoors. Plus, if there is any other places you know of like this down there in the area that could be shared with others, that would be great too.

You drove within' 200 yards of my house ifin' you came down 492 and 500 yards ifin' you came in 1508... I live in Dekoven....
That's the Old Martin Place you're talking about... Big Cane Patch back there too (Bamboo)... Just sold at auction a year or so back..I heard that it might be had for a price....Was three houses back there. Lots of history around that place....The town itself (Martin Place sits in) was or is known as Curlew,KY.... I've hunted that whole area in my time...
If you're reading up on it , check out the history of CURLEW,KY Coal Mines...
It's been told that Jesse James and the boys had used that rock (Anvil Rock) to rob trains..
Jesse and Frank lived here in Union County KY at one time in their life.

This picture didn't turn out as good as I wanted but,,, The Pin on the bottom right is my house and the pin top left is the old Martin Place..

So, If I was to drive back Martin Road & wanted to walk around back there. Would I get in trouble since there is no Gate up or no trespassing sign on that road??

To start with... It's a county road that goes back to the place...Nobody can stop you from going back there.

Nah... There ain't no body up here that watches over the place.
I think the guys that bought it lives down in 'bama or someplace....
Hell, stop and get me.. I'll take ya back there.

[wildmaninreed]
