Just above the middle quoin to the right of the wide door, there is an area in the mortar which looks as if it was brushed with a stiff brush before it set. While it is not certain why these streaks occur, they have been found in Ontario County (PHE - 13A) Quoins vary in length. Roudabush Survey page 74
