Far out man!!!!!! I was thinking of the other name but Widows watch is correct. Sheep you must be a New Englander.

From Jersey. My aunt owned an old house near the shore that at one time had a widows watch. There were other houses around that still had them.

Im up in the Saratoga area and alot of the old houses still have "cupolas". I guess they were to monitor troop movements. Whats funny is when I ride up into the Adirondack mountains I see houses with them. There is nothing to see but trees and mountains. What were these people watching for? There was also platforms on the roof that had railings around them called "widows walks".
