NOTES
Additional Information:The Good Templar’s Hall/Co-op Cheese Factory is an astylistic utilitarian building located at the southeast corner of CTH M and Riverside Drive in the unincorporated community of Indianford. Now converted into a residence, the main block is a rectangular, front-gable building that faces north. Resting on a fieldstone foundation, the walls are clad in clapboard and the moderately pitched gable roof is covered in asphalt shingles. The main entrance consists of a central doorway on the front (north) facade, which contains a replacement vinyl door, flanked by two window openings with plain wooden surrounds, containing two-over-two, double-hung, wood sash. Three window openings of varying sizes are evenly spaced along the west (side) elevation; one is covered with plywood, while the others appear to contain wood double-hung sash obscured by plastic sheeting. Two c.1940 shed roof additions on the south (rear) and east (side) elevations rest on concrete block foundations and are clad in clapboard. The east addition has a false parapet on its front (north) facade, and fenestration on its east (side) elevation consists of two-over-two, double-hung, wood sash; fixed sash; and a single-light picture window. An enclosed shed-roof porch has been added to the rear of the building since it was previously surveyed in 1977. cheese factory
