Accessible only by boat, the state park has four areas for primitive, riverside camping.[5] Hiking, fishing, and hunting are also available. The park was among the first parcels secured for park purposes by the state, with initial land purchases on the island made in 1917.[6] It is managed by Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection. SettingSelden Neck State Park is located on Selden Island, and is not actually a neck or peninsula. It is located on the east side of the Connecticut River south of Gillette Castle State Park, and is separated from the mainland by Selden Creek, land that is owned by the Nature Conservancy. The roughly lozenge-shaped island is about {{convert|0.5|mi|km}} at its widest point and about {{convert|1.5|mi|km}} long. It is primarily wooded except for a fringe of tidal marshes, and has a high point of {{convert|230|ft|m}}. FeaturesThe island is entirely roadless, but there are hiking trails on it. The main campground is located on the river side near the northern end. The island also has the remains of a quarry, located near the southeastern end. Begun in the late 19th century, the quarry provided red sandstone pavers for New York City and other regional cities. In addition to the quarry itself, the remains of a causeway for bringing stone from the quarry to the shore also survive. The island also has a documented prehistory. Excavations on the island in the 1980s uncovered a sizable Middle Woodland Period village, with radiocarbon dates to c. 1000 CE. Stone tools, pottery fragments, and animal bones are among the many artifacts found in the excavation, which only covered an estimated 2% of the site,[2] which was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.[8] References1. ^1 {{cite gnis|210755|Selden Neck State Park}} [3][4][5][6]2. ^{{cite book|title=Archaeology in America: An Encyclopedia|page=61|isbn=9780313021893|publisher=ABC-CLIO|year=2008|editor-last=Cordell|editor-first=Linda|editor2-last=Lightfoot|editor2-first=Kent}} 3. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://www.ct.gov/deep/cwp/view.asp?a=2716&q=325048 |title=River Camping |publisher=Connecticut Department of Energy and Environmental Protection |date=December 2015 |accessdate=October 1, 2017}} 4. ^1 {{cite web |url=http://www.cga.ct.gov/pri/docs/2013/State%20Parks%20and%20Forests%20Funding%20Staff%20Findings%20and%20Recommendations%20.pdf |title=Appendix A: List of State Parks and Forests |work=State Parks and Forests: Funding |series=Staff Findings and Recommendations |publisher=Connecticut General Assembly |date=January 23, 2014 |page=A-3 |accessdate=October 1, 2017}} 5. ^1 {{cite report |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=tNxWAAAAMAAJ&pg=RA2-PA18 |title=Report of the State Park Commission to the Governor 1918 |publisher=State of Connecticut |location=Hartford, Conn. |date=December 24, 1918 |pages=18–19 |accessdate=October 1, 2017}} 6. ^1 {{cite web |url={{NRHP url|id=87001231}} |title=Selden Island Site |work=National Register of Historic Places Nomination Form |first= |last= |publisher=National Park Service |date=October 15, 1987 |accessdate=December 12, 2017}} }} External links
