Notes
- Description
- Photograph of the Yreka jail viewed from across the street. A dirt street passes across the foreground on an upward angle from the lower right corner towards the left and out of frame. On the right, or far side of the road, the jail stands on the street corner. A stone wall encircles the building; a doorway is cut into the middle of the side of the wall that runs parallel to the street. Beyond the stone wall, the brick jail rises and peeks above the wall. It is viewed at an angle from the front and the side; it faces towards the street. A decorative chimney rises from each corner of the roof. The building sits on a street corner. Another street stretches behind the building and a house stands on the far side of the cross street, left-of-center.
