Title Birdseye view looking west on Temple Street from Bunker Hill, ca.1880

Description Photograph of a birdseye view looking west on Temple Street from Bunker Hill, ca.1880.

More houses are visible on top of the ridge of hills in the left background, with a mountain faintly visible in the right distance. Dirt paths connect the houses in the foreground.
