I'd say pre 1900 for sure but I can't narrow it down anymore than that. Maybe some of the other members can help!

I agree with Bryan, Pre 1900s but being in your area it could be a couple hundred years old. Walk a circle around it about 100 ft out and probe for a privey. You also want to look for an ash pit, gully, lake or river dump site. Looks like a good site.[]

In my experience in the country sites with an abundance of rocks the early dump could be located under a rock pile. It was common practice in the 1800's to dump your trash in a spot and then pile rocks on top of the dump site. Then add another layer of trash and then pile on more rocks. Most of the bottles located in this type of dump site are broken but I always seem to find a couple of smaller bottles that the rocks did not break. If there are an unusual rock piles out away from the foundation I would check them out.
