Description
Photograph of the ruins of adobe Rancho Corral de Piedras, San Luis Obispo County, August 1938. At center, the brick remains of the Stone Corral Ranch owned by Antonio Villa are shown just behind a paved road. The roof has collapsed entirely, and all that remain are eroding sections of the adobe walls. In its heyday, there was a saloon, store, and a butcher shop. A previous record reads: "Burned about 1935(?)".
