This appears to be a compound of structures related to the 1930’s dam construction site (CDW1). There are numerous cement building bases all showing a similar construction style. Bolts stick up from the edges of the floors, no doubt for the securing of other superstructure. The floors vary in shape and size and certainly in function. Some have stone retaining walls in front of them. CDW56I is probably safe from the road alignment but it probably belongs with the complex. One of the structures at CDWI may, however, be 19th century.
