Looking west on Beacon St. at the rear of the house which sits at a right angle to its entrance around the corner on Pleasant St. The house would soon be moved 400 feet to the southwest for the widening of Beacon St.
From the 1887 photo series taken just before the widening of Beacon St., most likely by Augustine H. Folsom, a Boston photographer.
