Description
Photograph of the exterior view of Mission San Diego Alcala showing a well (or water tank?) in the garden, San Diego, ca.1874. The mission, in the background, is in a state of disrepair. Much of the stucco deteriorated from the adobe walls. A road from the left leads to the church entrance. In the foreground is a windmill and well. A pipe extends from the windmill and its end hovers over the well.
