English: Ship Rock, Peabody, MA; from a c. 1906 postcard. Protruding off a high ledge, the boulder is the largest glacial erratic in the area.
Note that in the picture of ship rock the ladder is still there but it has been cut off in recent years possibly by the city because of numerous deaths. You can still climb the rock but only by freeclimbing or using a rope hung from the top that is quite unstable. If enough people complain to the city about this historical marking no longer being able to climb they just might put in a new ladder....
Here is a satellite image of the rock. (Compare with size of cars just east in the parking lot)
