Description and history
editThe 1+1⁄2-story wood-frame house was built in 1790 as a three-bay Cape style house; it was extended to five bays in 1843. It was owned by members of the Crocker family, one of the first to settle the area, until 1925. It is surmised by local historians that elements of the "Old Stone Fort", which was demolished in 1815, may have been used in the construction of the house.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on March 13, 1987.[1]
