Comparing the side view of Mr. Wood’s house with the side view of the cottage 
below, it is evident that this design is adaptable to different effects. The perspec¬ 
tive is slightly distorted; a truer picture appears alongside 
The difference in effect of brick and stone chimneys is very well evidenced in com¬ 
parison of this photograph and the one below it. Brick appears to advantage in 
a flat situation unencumbered with much foliage 
The front view of the house would 
not suggest the ground plan shown 
here. The dining-room is for the 
use of the owner when the main 
house on the estate is not occupied 
Where the house above is cut off slightly in back of the chimney, a kitchen wing has 
been built on this superintendent’s cottage to provide for the needs of the help on 
a large estate. The side view is not spoiled by any means with this addition 
The bedroom, with an adjoining bath, 
is made separate for the incidental 
use of the owner. These plans are 
for the use of a superintendent’s 
cottage and not a home 
These two houses show how adaptable this style is for varying situations. The front elevations are almost identical, with the exception of window treatment. Here the 
window box upstairs is particularly attractive and the screen of vines pleasing. In a setting of trees and stone walls such a house as this is very attractive
