The Elder Grey Meeting House was built in 1806, but it was
moved to this location in 1832. It was never given a proper foundation
and had settled with some sill deterioration. We were hired by
another contractor to support the building, excavate, and build
a fieldstone foundation.
 |
We excavated to below frost and then installed a footing of
crushed stone, which we compacted every 6 inches. No concrete
or mortar was used on this project.
 |
The foundation stones are all dry laid.
