Description
Black & white photographic print showing aftermath of flooding from hurricane Agnes in 1972. Image depicts southwest perspective view of Mouns Jones House (left) & Bridge Keeper’s House (right). The “Bridge Keeper’s House”, now re-named the “Michael Fulp House” in recognition of its first owner/occupant, in the center of the photo is identified by the cellar entry under the window and the door location in the right [southern] bay. Segments of the masonry walls, chimneys, roofs [both are complete replacements] and window framing of both buildings have been restored, replaced, or reconstructed in preservation campaigns during the past half-century [to 2015].
Note written in blue pen on verso reads, "STARTING THE CLEANUP"
