Armistead and Hancock

Polecat,
the Spangler farm was purchased by the Friends of Gettysburg. It is scheduled to start renovation this spring. The intended use is to allow it to be used for period interpetation when complete.
My two cents worth, the stone portion was built as a summer kitchen to get heat out of the house and provide fire retardent building materials. The frame part would have been added to provide more storage and preparation space as the family grew.
