The Mushroom Cottage
Then....
This picture was taken circa 1949 at 8 Houghton Street of the "Mushroom Cottage".
Perhaps the name came from the fact that the cottage was virtually concealed by 20-25 feet of total brush
and was hardly visible from the street.
The original owners were William Torrey and his wife.
Now
Photo taken 5/27/12
The brush is now gone as is the original cottage!
