Fieldstone Foundation Wall and Roofing Debris, Dairy Barn Fire Ruins, Rural New England, c. 1940s
The fieldstone foundation of a New England dairy barn survives the fire that destroyed the structure above it. Stonework like this, often built up over generations, was a common feature of older farm buildings throughout the region and frequently outlasted the wooden superstructures fire could claim in a single night.
