Unexpected

I was working for a friend today, doing some plumbing in a house he's helping to renovate.
Actually, at this point there's more demolishing happening than anything else.
He was growing up there 60 years ago and the house is still in the family.
It must be quite strange pulling the house apart; the rear elevation is now gone, exposing the living areas to the outside world.
I'm not sure when this little lady dates from, but she obviously means something to someone because she's been placed on the mantlepiece.
