I'm glad they left intact the rock foundation of the stable/new barn in Corriganville. Thus, allowing comparison with lobby cards and scenes from movies shot there. It makes for a good tie-in between the present and the past. The same can be said for the rock ring around the nearby tree, stunt rock and the dam. Although, I haven't seen it in many movies, I wish that the bridge across the lake were still there.
