Bronwen,
The type of flooring depended to a large degree on the date of
construction, as well as to some degree on geographic location and economic
circumstances. Can you provide such details for your carriage house (other
than a PA location)?

Hello listers - I am looking for information. If you work for an
historic property and have an original carriage house, can you tell me what the
flooring material is? Dirt, wood, stone, brick? Our carriage house is not
original, the family does not remember what the flooring material was. I have
only found two original sources and would prefer to have more examples. If
you can suggest written research materials that would be great as well, as I
found very limited information via the internet. As always, I am grateful
for the help!
