    This was a very beautiful limestone house that sits down off the hill on a huge lot. My rememberance of this cottage is the low limestone wall that existed in the early 1970's c. 1973-1974) that was on or near the property line to the south - David was repairing it and as usual was mumbling under his breath about the one who had built it and how hard it was to tear apart and if he got his hands on him..... after awhile the rantings stopped - lo behold he found a coffee within the wall - bearing the name of the builder - you guessed it no one else but himself!
