An old house, built in 1874, 17 years after the cemetery was founded. I believe this is referred to as the Sexton's House. Built of cut field stone, much of which had been carried down from Canada during various periods of glaciation, it was designed by Gordon W. Lloyd. The entrance gate and mausoleum are also constructed in this way. Forest Hill Cemetery, Ann Arbor, Michigan March 21, 2012

An old house, built in 1874, 17 years after the cemetery was founded. I believe this is referred to as the Sexton's House. I took this just for the simple pleasure of the scene, combining rigid geometric shingle design and loose branch and blossom design, but both in the same color scheme.

An old house, built in 1874, 17 years after the cemetery was founded. I believe this is referred to as the Sexton's House. All of the old buildings that are still standing in the cemetery carry a fancy pattern in their roof shingles. When I zoom in to look at the shingles in detail, they appear to me to be slate, not asphalt. Forest Hill Cemetery, Ann Arbor, Michigan March 21, 2012
