Description: Example of a "setoff" house at the Great Smoky Mountains Heritage Center in Townsend, Tennessee, United States. These small houses, moved via railroad, were used by lumber company employees at isolated logging locations. They were unloaded ("set off") from the train and placed in rows that became known as "stringtowns."
