The Wright Earthworks are a remnant of the large complex of earthworks located in Newark. This site is a testimony to how much has been lost. It consists of the corner of what was a much larger earthwork. What remains is at the end of a short, deadend street, and is crammed in between a business, a private residence and the highway. It is marked by a plaque explaining the site and its relation to the larger earthwork complex. The picture is of the corner of the earthwork. While you are in Newark visit its related sites: The Great Circle Earthwork and The Octagon Earthwork.
