Description

Slide is labeled as shaws flat school. Photo shows a wood framed building of modest size (maybe 16 ft by 32 ft) having two doors on the front and probably two windows on a side. It looks to have had only one coat of paint as none shows except at the eaves, that appearing either a pale yellow or white. There is no proper foundation, it appears to be supported on wooden fencing materials on rocks of various sizes. The metal flashing capping the roof has been half torn off by the wind. As of the time of the photo the siding is in generally good condition.
