The South fencing is a mix of woven wire and barbed wire and ends about twenty yards into the woods. There is run-in shed in the pasture. Magnetic interior storm windows protect the original 1850’s glass windows. These magnetic windows are used in museums â?? and attach very cleverly from the inside with magnets.
