Does your home have original wooden windows?

Heritage NL is working on a project to measure and record window features on the Avalon Peninsula and needs help from the public to track them down.

Specifically, we are looking to measure some muntins! These are the bars that hold the glass in wooden windows.

Windows need to:

• be original (not replicas as profiles will not be accurate to the time period)
• have muntin bars
• be datable to within a decade

We will need access to the inside of the property, but all measurements will be non-invasive.

If you are interested or want more information please contact Tienne at Heritage NL by emailing tienne@heritagenl.ca or calling (709) 739-1892 (ex. 5).
