Nicely done Roy, like the house a LOT! Does this have a slate roof?

Sort of reminds me of some of the really old homes where I grew up in New England. Slate foundations, slate roofs and short doorways ;~)

Super shot of a well built cabin. I've seen buildings like these before and marveled at their construction

Based on the subject line of your email, I was expecting a stand of trees. Neat piece of Canadian history.

A nicely constructed timber house, older than our house built 1910, but built to last.
