Where no Kennington had Ventured for Seventy Years...

The original kitchen door bricked up after WWII to make way for indoor plumbing.

The west side of the house.  The middle section originally held the kitchen.

South windows on what was originally Grandma and Grandpa's bedroom.

Reminds one of a haunted house. 

Stairs off the front room.  The basement stairs were under these from the west kitchen.

An old trunk left in the attic.

Lynette and the lady who gave us permission to look around.

Mike surveys the west side of the attic.

A small room on the south attic area.

Apparently the attic had always served as a storage area.  Uncle Gene said he was surprised at how little it had changed since they lived there.

Peak of uninsulated roof (brrrr).  A small attic is formed over the 2 south bedrooms.

North West bedroom - where the little boys slept after they served as bed warmers for older kids.

kitchen door into living room.  Originally the master bedroom, converted to kitchen after WWII.

Those pictures and the things you found are amazing. I cannot believe that they have been there for all these years.
