The rear of several of the worker's dwellings, circa late 1800s, located on the grounds at Batsto Historic Village in Hammonton, New Jersey.  Workers in the village would sometimes live in one of the several identical swellings that lined the road on the west side of the village.  Oddly the one in the foreground seems to be built without two of the windows and the chimney for some reason.

Tilt and swing movements on LF cameras are a beautiful thing :--)
