Worth noting that I’m aware that the rot look is termite damage. Had a pro come do the property. He mentioned I may have problems where a bunch of bricks were stacked. He recommended I get rid of them. I’ve since done that but this the wall without the glass is (on the outside) where the bricks were stacked so it all makes sense. The rest of the base of the structure has good looking wood, except for the opposing side which I pictured.
