Most of these old stone structures once was a families home, I can't imagine the toil and hard labor one had to endure to construct and maintain these stone houses.
This one sets on a small hill over looking the dirt road below.
there are open meadows to the East across the rd.
while I was there, the whitetail deer were grazing in a pasture several hundred yards from me.
Hi up on the hill this old two story stone house
is crumbling to the ground.
The old house looks like it was a small mansion in it's time
there were 2 stories and huge well sets in the yard next to the house
Probably hand dug
The root cellar was huge, constructed like a half dome
everyone of these rocks were hand picked and hand laid to form
the cellar Look how huge it was.
these cellars served several purposes, protection from the wicked
Kansas weather, and a place to keep the canned food from the garden.
I am not sure how the people accessed this house as it sets on a small hill
with no access road leading to the house.
Enjoy the photographs

have a blessed day
