Absolutely wonderful masonry work. This was a very nice structure in its day.

Locals indicate that the premises were occupied by a family (one child). The husband went insane and burnt the home with wife and a small boy inside. A variation has this down as a double murder and attempted suicide by the father. Another story has it as an deliberate arson for fire insurance. It will be difficult to say the least to sort out the folklore from fact. An area resident spoke to me of the luxuriously detailed woodworked interior.
