AusnN's HousE PLANS

NORTH

Back here the kitchen and other out buildings will be placed be- tween the house and Pleasant Bayou, so ns to be convenient to wood. and water-the back yard must extend down to the bayou and all the large trees ought to be carefully preserved so as to have a cool shady grove back of the house on the bank of the bayou, also this grove will break o.ff the north winds in winter The garden and orchard can be east, or west of the house along the edge of the timber, and the cow pens stables &c ought to be on the opposite end of the house from the Garden, that is, if the garden is west or below the house, the cow pens, stables barn and calf lot ought to be to the east of the house up the bayou which I think will be the best place- The farm ought to be on the north side of Pleasant bayou Explanation of the Plan D Means door-W means windows GD. means glass door
