Place & story
A doorway and upper windows
Near the northwestern end of Main Street, the architectural inventory records a three-storey house with an attic, built about 1815 as one of a pair. Its round-headed entrance has a fanlight and a dressed limestone surround, with a carved cornice above the door. Timber sash windows survive on the first floor. Although some lower openings have changed, the inventory identifies the tall proportions and stone doorway as significant features of the older streetscape. [2]
