Description and history

Built about 1890, it is the latest known 19th-century dogtrot house surviving in the county. Its two pens are fashioned out of hewn logs joined by saddle notches, and is sheltered by a gable roof. The pens have been sheathed in weatherboard, and a full-width porch extends across the building's front.[1]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on September 17, 1985.
