Stafford County, Virginia, circa 1928. "Cabin on alley by Fall Run, Falmouth." 8x10 inch acetate negative by Frances Benjamin Johnston. View full size.
I agree with kozel, Amy's café is in the brick building now. I live across the river and drive by there occasionally. I'll have to look for the cabin the next time I go by.
That appears to be a seamed copper roof, common for the Old Dominion in the early 20th century. I had one on an old, square-cut Chestnut log house I lived in near Rapidan. An elegant touch on an otherwise utilitarian abode.
Chickens were richer back then.
That cabin was minuscule, until they built the addition on the side.
I looked around the corner, and it appears that the cabin is gone. An equally small house is there, though.
That brick 2 chimney building in the back is probably now Amy's Cafe. The building has matching chimneys and roof lines on both ends.
