Historic Outbuildings of Interest

Archaeologist Brian Crane joined the group for our next stop on #fieldtripfriday... an amazing 18th century farm in the ag reserve with the most incredible HISTORIC OUTBUILDINGS! Seneca sandstone outbuildings that were truly a treat to see. These outbuildings were beautifully crafted... expertly built. Their placement on the landscape next to the main house was really interesting to observe. We will need to revisit the site to get a better understanding of what each building was actually used for... We may be talking about an overseers domicile as well as enslaved quarters. Thank you to Allison who was so gracious letting our group descend upon her property.
