@raspberrypanda This looks like the foundation to our 1820 barn in NH. We hired a Historical Restoration Timber Framer to help fix it up. He’s actually on this season’s This Old House, Arron Sturgis. He was super excited about some joinery in our ‘carriage house’/garage because it was traditionally only used in ship building. The original owner of our home was Captain John Clark, so they thought he used the skills he knew to build it 🥰🥰🥰
That's awesome!
Not the dodgy foundation, but the history of the building. 💚

Dodgy is relative. How old is the structure and what has it weathered?
I'm piling rocks under a post right now so may be biased
