Description

On its back, this photograph is inscribed, "Hancock Shakers Dairy Building." The photograph shows the building used as a dairy with workshops on the second floor. At present the building has a second door where the right-hand window is located on the facade -- it apparently had one at an earlier time that the Shakers changed into a window and during the restoration of the building by Hancock Shaker Village, Inc., the window was replaced by a door.
