Here is the Octagonal Shed watching over the Brickhill River

The Boat House is starting to fall into the Brickhill River

The Pump House behind the Mansion.

The Duplex Hard to see, but the vertical "tree" on the right side of the photo is actually the chimney of the building.  notice the steps in the foreground.  Is this the Housekeepers House? The Pump House is well named.  Inside is located the new sprinkler system pump. Allsouth Sprinkler Company from Buford, GA is installing the system. The pump would only cut on if there is a fire and then it is to boost the water pressure up to 275-250 psi.  They started the 1st of November 2006, but were gone a couple of months, and now are back to finish up.

 
This monster of a tank will be partially covered behind the Pump House.  Holding 12,000 gallons of water, this will be connected to the sprinkler system pump for a surge of available water. The sump pump is lowered into the main pump enclosure.  This is to keep water from flooding the diesel pump.  

The Carriage House is slowly being reclaimed by the vegetation.
