An ink diagram depicts a property or garden layout. A simple church building with a steeple and a cross sits at the top of the sketch. A long path or road leads from the church down to a larger, roughly rectangular enclosure. This enclosure is divided into several smaller plots of varying sizes. The plots are marked with handwritten labels: "Vegetable garden border," "a garden room," "at the corner," and "a long stretch." The section labeled "a long stretch" also contains a small drawing of a building and a series of horizontal parallel lines. These lines likely indicate garden beds or furrows.
Vegetable garden border original: "Potat le bord"; "Potat" likely serves as an abbreviation for "potager," meaning a kitchen or vegetable garden.
a garden room original: "un salon"; in the context of historical landscaping, this refers to a cleared outdoor area used for social gatherings.
