DescriptionSeveral one story frame buildings are behind a larger two-story building, possibly a house. Lumber piles, barrels, and an empty wooden wire spool are around the outbuildings. Smoke issues from a short smokestack; a tall smokestack is supported by guy wires. A driveway is in the foreground.
NotesSubject Note: The presence of the smokestacks suggests that some kind of manufacturing is being carried on in the buildings. (Finlay 11/3/2013)
