Description and history edit

This 2+12 story granite building was constructed c. 1850–60, and may have been built by the Spaulding Company, who owned the nearby mill complex. It is distinctive locally as a granite structure in a residential area of predominantly wood-frame houses, and for its uses as a company store and meeting space (above).[2] The building has since been converted to residential use.

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on October 7, 1983.[1]
