| Features: |
| Built in 1850, this two storey doule town house is of rubble stone with a brick facade facing Pinnacle Street. The stone is reputed to be 2 feet thick on the end walls and the brick 3-bricks thick on the front wall. It has a parapet gabled roof with centered chimneys on north and south end walls. The roof was wooden, probably hand-made pine on cedar shingles. There are six windows facing Pinnacle Street on the second storey with 6 over 6 framing. There were 4 identical windows on the first floor facing Pinnacle Street. Hand cut stone flat arch style lintels and saches are found above and below each window in both storeys. The roosters carved above the doors indicate that the building may have been used as a customs house (see photograph in File #1). |
