This aerial photo of the Beth-Shan residences was taken after its sale in 1945. The building at upper right is the main Beth-Shan residence. The long building to the left of the cul-de-sac is the "goat barn" which had a secret bomb shelter (as did the main residence). The air strip at top left was not built by the Society, but was built by Bruster Gillies in 1945 after he purchased the property from the Society.

Beth-Shan in 1945

An aerial view of Beth-shan looking South. This shows the original, winding dirt road which was the only access to the residence. The road in the foreground is the airstrip Bruster Gillies put in after buying the property from the Society in 1945.
