Notes:

Attributed to Linfoot by drawing style & presence in collection. The size & type of structure, and the style, suggest this could be Bardwold, the residence of Mrs. A.W. Baird, in Merion, Pa., which is illustrated in other drawings & prints in this collection. No direct comparison can be made, however, and the project could be for another Linfoot client.
