Wooden buildings and the farmstead
The wooden fire station at Nowostawy Dolne No. 55 dates from 1932. Three building functions and construction dates can be compared at the farmstead at Nowostawy Dolne No. 15: the wooden residential house dates from 1918, the brick stable from 1933, and the timber-and-brick storehouse from 1915. The storehouse is therefore the oldest of the three buildings; there are 15 years between the house and the stable. Their materials also differ: wood for the house, brickwork for the stable, and both materials for the storehouse. The farmstead thus brings together different uses and construction methods at one address.
Other wooden residential houses add to the chronological picture. The houses at Nowostawy Dolne Nos. 7 and 30 date from around 1915, while the house at No. 45 dates from around 1917. The residential house at No. 37 is dated to the 1920s. Thus, alongside the specific construction years of the buildings at the farmstead, there are approximate dates and a decade-based classification. Taken together, the dates of the buildings mentioned span from 1915 to the 1930s.
