Background
One the Seri-gumi divisions of ashigaru in Hikone, the Kitagawa Residence has only undergone very minor remodeling and the addition of a small room off the back in the intervening years, making it one of the better preserved Ashigaru homes that are now private residences. It is an important link to understanding their construction and preserving these homes for the future..
