    At 880 Vienna Road is a frame house with a cobblestone wall at the side of the back. There are two windows in the wall with wood lintels. This is probably what is left of an original structure, since it lacks visible quoins. Stones are fairly large and irregular and vary in color. The horizontal mortar has a V-shaped cross section, but the edge is not sharp. Between stones, the mortar is in pyramids, truncate at the bottom of the stones. Roudabush Survey page 114
