Description

3 1/2"h x 3 1/2"w black and white photo of the Herring Creek house, also sometimes known as The Folly. John Hodges bought the house from J. Allan Coad and did major salvage and reconstruction. This is a view of one of the gable ends of the main building and the addition. The main building's porch roof was integrated into the house roof. There were four dormers in the main building. The porch had a closed end roof. The gable end of the main building was clapboard with a pair of large brick chimneys. The right chimney was swathed in scaffolding. Immediately to the left of the right chimney stack was a pair of four over four double hung windows. The gable roofed addition was a story and a half, but not nearly as tall as the main house. There was one gable roofed dormer with a four over four double hung window in the visible roof. Anything on the first floor long side was completely obscured by trees. On the gable end there was a single dark outside end chimney that crossed the roofline below the roof peak. In the attic, there was a six over six double hung window nearer the back roof than the chimney. On the first floor there was a six over six double hung window on each side of the chimney. Immediately to the right of the chimney was a stove vent. Near the back wall and somewhat behind a shrub was a larger six over six window. There was lots of construction debris on the ground and a propane tank lying on its side in the grass. ********************************** Text on verso: none
