Touring Pendarvis House
Image
A group of eight young men, all Georgia Junior Rangers, and two of their guides, are posing in front of Pendarvis House, a Cornish miner's cottage. Five men are standing on the lawn, while the other men are sitting on the stone wall in front of the cottage. Three of the junior rangers are wearing pith helmets. Trelawny House is on the right. Restoration of the two houses was nearly complete. The two upright stone slabs in front of Trelawny are supports for a gate in the later-constructed stone wall.
