at Pendarvis Historical Site
Polperro House is one of six house that are on the interpretative tour at Pendarvis Historical Site in Mineral Point Wisconsin. I love the exterior architectural details on this 150 year old house. Quarried limestone blocks on the first floor, chinked wood on the second and third floors, and quite intricate doors and windows pieced in place.
About Bo MackisonI'm a photographer, book-artist, traveler, naturalist, and creator of the Contemplative Creatives Journey, An Online Workshop and Community and Desert Wisdom Cards and Workshops. Though often not well known, I find the desert a welcoming place - a healing space. Its mysteries and gifts transformed me several years ago. Since that first encounter, I return again and again to fill my well in what most people think of as a desolate region. I'd love to share my desert discoveries and wisdom with you. Please subscribe to receive my five part mini email course The Gifts of the Desert. It's my gift to you.
Am just loving these historic houses. Especially love the fence and gate in this one!

Ah, this is my favorite of the two. Hard to explain, but this picture sparks my imagination. That’s a good thing. 🙂
