NotesSubject Note: The buildings appear to be part of a farm, including a house, barn, and silo, but the style of building is unusual. It is possible that the buildings are part of Avon Old Farms School in Avon, Connecticut, which was designed by Theodate Pope Riddle, and built between 1918 and 1927.
