		<description><![CDATA[Here&#8217;s something that seems to have flown under the radar. A 1993 book, Historical and Architectural Resources of Barrington, Rhode Island, reproduced two fine old maps, from 1851 and 1870, demonstrating the growth of this town, especially since a railway station was put in at West Barrington in 1868 and development of farmland into bayside [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Prudence Island: our Allins came to Barrington from there before 1680; and the story goes that in the winter of 1682, Narragansett Bay froze solid enough for William1 Allin to haul his house over it (presumably minus the stone-end chimney), a few miles up the bay from Prudence to Annawomscutt in West Barrington. Now it&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One update after last Wednesday&#8217;s talk. The night before, fleshing out a slide show, I went back up to the attic to look at the 1798 Federal direct property tax valuation page pasted on the partition wall under the eaves, and took a closeup of what I realize is Thomas Allin&#8217;s signature, since it is [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Part of the long process of settling into any house seems to be the endless shifting of stuff in basements, attics and garages. This sunny weekend I extracted from the basement an enormous pile of old storm windows — full height wooden sashes, mostly two over two, the style of the &#8216;modern&#8217; replacement windows which [...]]]></description>

The attic floor is a real anomaly — pine which had never been sanded or finished in any way, and, under the eaves, hardly ever walked on, since the house went [...]]]></description>

This is a vast expanse of untouched hand-planed 18th-century pine floor, nominally 1100 square feet (minus the chimney in the middle) &#8212; never sanded, never oiled. [...]]]></description>

Contrast to last week&#8217;s gaping hearth pit: For the first time, it now seems as if we&#8217;ve rounded the corner of demolition and opening-up, and are moving back toward &#8216;finished&#8217; and &#8216;inhabitable&#8217;.
