Description
Photograph of an exterior view of the Winchester "Mystery" House, Santa Clara, ca.1900. A sidewalk in the foreground with two trees along its edge intersects a trail that runs down the center with a small portion of the house at the end. Grass walls with stone posts stand on either side of the trail with a dark gate that guards the entrance. Further back down the trail, palm trees as well as short bushes cover the yards on either side of the trail. The house is lightly-colored with a large bush leaning on the visible wall.
