Photo

A photo of the Cuckoo House is here: http://www.dhr.virginia.gov/registers/Counties/Louisa/Cuckoo_page.htm -- if it's permitted by law and policy, can someone add it to the page in place of the less-informative map? I don't know how. 24.27.31.170 (talk) 04:07, 31 August 2011 (UTC) Eric[reply]

Since it comes from a state website, it's copyrighted and can't be copied to Wikipedia. Only works from Federal websites that were clearly taken by federal employees on government time can be used in that manner, which excludes nearly all National Register nominations, which were shot by private individuals. The Historic American Buildings Survey is an appropriate source, but alas, Cuckoo isn't in their collection. Acroterion (talk) 11:57, 31 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I happened to pass by and have added a picture of the repaired house. Acroterion (talk) 01:30, 2 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]
