    A bit of a wild guess, but could it be BOUCHON meaning a small inn?

    I quote from Wilipedia: "The tradition of bouchons came from small inns visited by silk workers passing through Lyon in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries."

    There's nothing 'wrong' with the gableing - there are many buildings of the early-mid Victorian period which display similar ornamentation; we have lots of them here in the Lake District, and other similar towns in Scotland such as Pitlochry and Strathpeffer

    I didn't mean 'wrong' as in 'wrong' but 'wrong' in 'not consistent with the vernacular architecture of the area being considered' - which is what I think you may have been suggesting?

    Since it's obviously a photo card, I might be able to (when viewing the lay out and particularly the stamp box on the back) to tell you :
    a° where it was printed (by whom and/or on which paper)
    b° when it was printed

    About the photographer, sure it is an "H"? And sure abolutely sure it's Bouchen, not Boucher?

    Too bad, not a single sign or initial in the stamp box.
    At least we can date the card now, viewing the rate of half a penny inland and one penny abroad: 1902< >1918.
    Sure about the Bouchen on the front? When I enlarge the pencil writing on the back, I see 2 points above the word, I wonder what they are doing there.
    I've read the word about 15 times now and every time I come up with something new.
    Last time I looked I thought I saw Bödchen. :what:
    And a couple of hours ago I read it and thought I saw another word, which turned out to be a small Polish village, but quite frankly I forgot the name already. :angryfire:
