<p>[QUOTE="verybrad, post: 117408, member: 37"]I think newer. If you look at the ragged edge at the bottom, the paint goes right up to the edge. I would think that if this were painted before it rotted, you would see more paint loss along that edge. You might also look to see if paint goes down into the cracks at all. If so, this is a sure sign that it is newer and painted on old wood.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
