Polperro Undergoing Restoration

A restored Cornish miner's house, called Polperro, built in the 1840s, on Shake Rag Street undergoing restoration. The house was temporarily covered with siding, but after restoration the siding was removed to reveal the original log construction. The building is currently owned by the Wisconsin Historical Society and is one of several structures that comprise the Pendarvis historic site. |
