Saltbox
Description
Settlers in 18th century New England built square, sturdy two-story homes. As their families grew, extensions to the first floor were often built along the back of the house. The distinctive sloping roofline characterized the Saltbox style. This video follows the restoration of a saltbox- style home from the foundation up.
