Description

Black and white 3 1/2"h x 3 1/2"w photo of Herring Creek in Valley Lee. This shows one brick gable end of the house. It is a story and a half gable roof structure with a porch as part of the roofline. There is a massive double outside end chimney with a brick pent that goes to probably the ceiling of the first floor. The chimneys are straight on the interior side and have a shoulder on the exterior side. The shoulder of the chimney on the right is higher than the chimney on the left and the chimney on the right is much larger than the one on the left. The left chimney passes the roof about halfway down the roof slope, but the right stack passes the roof near the peak. It is very visible on this end of the house that the roofline has been raised at some point. Electric power comes to the house on this end on the right. There are two six over six windows between the chimney stacks. The intersection between the brick gable end and the clapboard face of the house is covered with a white board. Clapboard also closes off the end of the porch roof. Between the left chimney and the corner of the house on the first floor is a shed roof addition that may provide access to the basement. There is a door under its eaves, but there is not room for more than a hallway. The electric meter is on one side of this addition. There is a scaffold against the chimneys and pent. There are three gable roof dormers barely visible in the main house. There is a large central door in the main house. There are two nine over six windows on each side of the door. A small pediment has been squeezed between the top of the door and the porch roof. There is construction debris all around. ********************************** Text on verso: "Picture 371.
