In 1941, Bob built this one bedroom cottage as a place for the family to live while he built the big house, and to see if his newly acquired masonry technique would work. But then war put a stop to everything for five years. Bob is thirty here, Betty twenty-eight, and Nancy three. I won't be born for two years.
