Hello MassHistPres Community,

I write seeking help with an unusual Georgian house type in Newton's Upper Falls village.  
I've attached a photo.  The house stands on a stone foundation and once had an interior 
brick chimney extending from the rear roof slope, left side.  Any thoughts?  It's generally 
categorized as a 'half-house' for reasons that will become obvious.  Are there similar 
examples in your communities, and if so, do you know when they were built?

The City of Newton is working to identify the provenance of this building (and others) as part 
of its effort to update its B Forms.  We appreciate any guidance you may provide.

Katy
