North Chimney

Just for the sake of completeness.

Extension Chimney

This one looks more like a chimney. It was not very well constructed originally but they did see the need for a bigger flue. Both this one and the south one were full of debris, the middle one was clear, perhaps the middle one was used after the railroad era?

Flashing will cover much of the base when the shingle roof is installed.

Chimney complete, nearly

The chimney on the south end. When the flashing is completed it will partly hide the pedestal that comes out of the roof.

It has been a long time since the chimney profile was so complete. Even a 100 years ago this top course or two were missing.

The bricks will be cleaned up.

South Chimney

Men at work on the South Tower. Starting to look more like a Depot than a Barn. Not that many barns have 3 chimneys.

Roof detail

The original trim has been removed and a wood fillet put in. This will allow the roofer a straight edge to work from. The original roof was nailed initially into the trim. Not such a good idea and not something sold enough after 130 years to be done again.

I chose this photograph because of the bird.

Another view of our dry stack.

A bit more definition but you can see how it steps out and comes back in.

North Extension Chimney

Keen eyes will see the roughness of the finish. Less apparent until you get up there and see is that the chimney is nearly square. Perhaps they were asked to build a chimney with a bigger flue? This was built one or two winters after the previous chimneys.
