Black and white photograph of Burnmouth, a summer cottage located on Eden Street, Bar Harbor. Burnmouth was designed by Boston architect William Ralph Emerson and built by contractor John E. Clark. The original owner was W.B. Walley. The house was located on Eden Street and was torn down in 1979.
This photograph shows the land-side of the house, and was taken in the off-season, as the vines do not have any leaves and many of the windows and doors are covered with shutters and boards.
Pencil writing on the back of this photograph identifies this cottage as "Bournemouth" which is misspelled. Also written in this same hand is:
Mrs. Archibald Harrison (1904)
