gm. Słubice, pow. płocki, woj. mazowieckie ![]() Initially, the village was part of the village of Sady included in the dominion Świniary. The Dutch colonists settled in the village at the end of the 18th century. It occurs as an independent settlement only after 1830. Nowosiadło is a linear village and is located on both sides of the road that goes from Wiączemin Polski to Świniary and then to Życko Polskie and Piotrkówek. The buildings are positioned along an east-west line. The cultural landscape of the village is very well preserved with visible willow and poplar trees planted among the fields and man-made rises, on which the traditional homesteads are located. The homesteads can be reached by driveways connected to the main village road. Drainage canals situated along the road have been maintained. The landscape is complemented by the preserved examples of traditional architecture.
Building no. 6 is a wooden house, erected ca. 1920. It is situated in a homestead, which is arranged on a rectangular plan, and is located along a north-south line with small farm buildings - a henhouse and a shed. Entire homestead is surrounded by a wattle fence. The house is made of poplar and oak (ground sill) wood; it has a corner-notched log structure connected by dovetail halvings at corners with protruding log ends. Low (2 m) walls are covered with a medium (3.6 m) rafter-collar beam roof, which is reinforced with queen posts and rests on pointing sills. The structure is roofed with sheet metal. A shed has been added to the northern gable of the building. The shed is covered with a pent roof. The walls of the residential section and the cowshed are lime-washed. The residential section has a two-bay and two-axial interior with a centrally located, chimney, which includes a heater (between rooms), a kitchen stove, and a bread oven. The building is preserved in poor condition (BK - all record cards of the above buildings - Jerzy Szałygin, 1999). The cemetery is located in the eastern section of the village on the southern side of the road near Świniary. The cemetery was established on the rectangular plan on the eastern side of the dirt road that leads to a homestead located in a distance. The cemetery is entirely overgrown with bushes; no gravestones have survived.
