[QUOTE="clutteredcloset49, post: 314103, member: 85"]Well, since they have obviously been moved, were not there in the 1950s before the remodel. I think someone didn't know what they were, guessed them to be hitching posts and put them at the doors. I think the people that suggested iron stands for inside the fireplace are probably correct. There was probably more than one fireplace. The main one in the kitchen for cooking. Others for warmth where a pot with water may have been hung for humidity.[/QUOTE]
