This photo was taken ca. 1899. At left is the power house of the Exeter, Hampton and Amesbury Street Railway Company, while at right is the car barn where trolleys were parked. The car barn was built in 1897 and burned in 1907. A smoke stack appears above the power house, and a water tower can be seen in the back between the two buildings. This building was located on Exeter Road just west of the intersection with Timber Swamp Road.
