Farmhouse, Clyattville-Lake Park Road
The photo below shows the diamond vent which was probably original to the farmhouse. It seems to have been enlarged over the years.

Abandoned Farmhouse, Chestnut Road
My first thought was that this may be two old farmhouses that were joined together at some point. The extra length at the rear of the house, as well as the “side door”, led me to this conclusion.

Pioneer Farmhouse, Snapdragon Road
Visit the link below for a view of this house nearly four years ago. I’m amazed that it’s virtually unchanged. It’s of the so-called Cracker style. http://vanishingsouthgeorgia.com/2008/12/26/tenant-farmhouse-snapdragon-road/

Vernacular Farmhouse with Awning, McTier
I remember many old farmhouses when I was growing up had this mid-20th-century metal awning over the windows; you rarely see it today. This is located directly beside S. S. Surrency’s store, which is shown in the following post.
