This is a single outhouse behind the maintenance building at Powers Cemetery. It looks like someone had had a jolly time throwing toilet paper around, to add to the leaves and detritus that had blown in through the cracks. The door was closed, but was able to be opened without much problem, if you give it a gentle lift as you open. It needed a rake-out at the time of my visit.
Location:
Though there are a dozen graves without dates, the oldest recorded grave is from 1852, making this an antebellum cemetery.
