Description

2 5/8"h x 4 1/2"w sepia tone photo of Cornfield Harbor. It was a massive gable roofed house with a pair of large chimneys on the visible gable end. There appeared to be a small gable roofed porch on that end of the house also. There was a full porch on the long side of the house that had eight bays. Trees obscured some details, but there appeared to be a double door and all the windows may have been French doors; all had dark shutters. There were two sets of four steps each to get to the porch floor. The roof of the porch was very slightly sloped and there was a pierced work railing so the space could be used by those on the second floor. I can't tell how many windows were on the second floor. There were several dormers with double hung windows. There was a large multi story building at the far end of the house, but the trees obscured details. ********************************** Text on the verso: in blue stamp ink "402" typewritten "Cherryfields" crossed out and replaced by Cornfield Harbor (Hall House destroyed) St. Mary's Co., Maryland Photograph by Swepson Earle prior to 1923 Original owned by W.
