In Need: Cunningham Homestead, Windsor, California
Currently owned by the Town of Windsor, the Cunningham Homestead is the site of one of Windsor's earliest settlement buildings, circa 1855. The Windsor Historical Society is managing its restoration and has been able to fund its new, temporary metal roof until a more authentic shake can be installed. Foundation work is next, followed by returning the front porch to its presumed original location on the facade shown above. A sketch of the original elevation appears in the Town of Windsor's history webpage. Funding thus far will not allow for the reuse of this structure. The Cunningham Homestead is listed in the Town of Windsor's Historic Register.
