farm and courtyard Explanation: Yes, I think it's a farm. The farm house has an inner courtyard. I did a translation once about farms in the Sudetenland and this was the typical setup. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-06-09 11:49:14 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- On second thought I think it should be farmhouse and courtyard. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 2003-06-09 13:16:23 (GMT) -------------------------------------------------- This is from the local history that I translated. I also think it\'s strange that the Hofraum was bought separately, but I can imagine that the previous owner had used only the living quarters and may have sold the Hofraum to a farmer. Mittelfränkischer Vierkanthof - Wohn- und Wirtschaftsgebäude liegen um einen Hof, der zur Straße meist durch Mauer und Tor abgeschlossen ist. Der meist rechteckige Hofraum war vorn abgeschlossen durch Mauer und Tor. Langenscheidt Muret-Sanders |
