A photo that didn't focus on the two-car garage and demonstrates some of these purported "Greek Revival" features in this apparently perfectly undistinguished vernacular farmhouse would help convince the reader that the U.S. National Register of Historic Places isn't simply a political comedy act. --Wetman 00:27, 10 October 2007 (UTC)Reply

A savvy reader would never be convinced of such a thing. I suspect that this photo wasn't easy to get. 69.137.246.61 (talk) 03:13, 14 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

I took the photo. Indeed it wasn't easy to get and involved, well, trespassing. I think you can easily see the pedimented gable in the photo, and if you look the limestone foundation, unfortunately a dog kept me from getting closer. :-( --IvoShandor (talk) 11:13, 6 October 2008 (UTC)Reply
