joined by a continuous slightly projecting plat band; between
bays 1 and 2 are wide plank doors with a 4-pane transom light,
with similar doors to bay 3, under a first-floor door. The
central coped gable with cross saddle has a projecting
horizontally timber clad gabled hauling way on brackets, with
a 16-pane light set low. Under this at ground floor is a plank
