Renovation of a 400 square foot house built in 1922 located in Cornish, Maine. The original foundation was 20 feet by 20 feet. At some point in the house's history a small (10' x 8') addition was put on the back. Later that addition was removed and enlarged to an addition the full width of the house and remained 8 foot deep.
The old rock walls are being taken out from under the sills. Martin is digging down the depth of the new foundation (about 3 feet) and putting in temporary supports to hold up the corners and the nibbed-scarf joints in the middle of the sills.
