1. Gates, Fences, Corrals 



The fence lines have apparently not changed significantly since the Strain 

 family ran the ranch, but over the years the materials have been replaced near 

 the ranch complex and fencing has been removed on the rangeland; their 

 integrity is fair. 



m. Windbreak Trees and Orchard 



A line of Monterey Cypress trees define part of the north boundary of the 

 ranch complex, just north of the main house. These trees are more than 100 

 years old. The orchard south of the horse barn/residence dates from the later 

 Strain era, 1901-1920, although many of the older trees are gone. Only one 

 tree remains from the original Henry Strain orchard located west of the house. 



The portion of Highway One known as Strain's Hill or Thirteen Curves is 

 lined with century-old eucalyptus trees, reportedly planted by Henry Strain 

 after the road was built in 1867. The historic trees are probably on the 

 CalTrans right-of-way. One tree marks the northeast corner of the Strain lands 

 and was planted by Henry Strain in the mid- 1860s. 



n. Other structures 



There are three other small outbuildings on the property, all built less 

 than 50 years ago by the Teixeira family. The Silveira house and its 

 outbuildings were built in 1948 in the orchard south of the original ranch 

 complex. The historic ranch outhouse (PR-230) was removed around 1990.
