Lot 24, C4 Saltfleet, ON stretches from Ridge Road, above the Escarpment down to what would become King Street in the Village of Stoney Creek. This included what we today call the Devil's Punchbowl. The stream that drops over the mountain brow at this this point, flowing north into the lake is still the "Stoney Creek". This property was patented to Adam Green.
