jackmilliesmom - how old is your house, do you know? And what's that wee building across from you with the steps leading up the side to the odd door?
No pictures of our house at the moment, I'll try to dig one up later.
I just love seeing american homes, they are quite different to ours here down under, and of course the beautiful quaint stone cottages in the UK or Ireland, are always great to see,just love that history. :)
jackmilliesmom, what a wonderful house! I'm jealous!

Don't say that I am sure your house is just as beautiful and would love to see it. We are still renovating ours and the building in the back of one of the pictures is called a piggary years ago people would keep pigs and this would be their home. We have knocked a full door in teh back of it and that is where the doggies stay during the day when we are at work and at night they do not like to sleep in the house for some reason.Quote:

I just explained in an earlier post about the building at the back and what it is called. Our house is approximately 120 years old and there were 3 families reared there and they had at the very least 12 children in each but guess what we only have 4 rooms in the house upstairs would have been 2 bedrooms and downstairs would have been a bedroom and a kitchen. They would have had an outdoor toilet at the side of the piggary which is still there but has a more modern toilet in it now. We use that when my husband is working in his workshop as for him to come in and use hte bathroom upstairs he would drag plasterdust and other yucky stuff through the house. We have converted one of the bedrooms upstairs into a bathroom and the bedroom downstairs is now our sitting room.Quote:

Our house is made from granite stone and the walls from outside to in are 3 foot thick, we have replaced the old wooden windows with the nearest style of pvc windows. We love where we live as we look across at a farm on the other side of the road and pick out our lamb for easter dinner and the rest of the year, sorry lamb lovers but that is a way of life I am afraid....
Our home is a work in progress. I hope the yard will look much better in the coming months. I have certainly been working hard on it!
