History and architectural features

The site includes a small German colonial manor house that dates to 1803 with a large brick addition dating to 1858 and an attached log house, and a stone woolen mill that date to 1805. The original 1803 manor house is a two-and-one-half-story, three-bay wide building. Attached to it is the two-and-one-half-story, late-federal-style, brick addition, with the early nineteenth century, two-story log house attached to it. The log house was restored in 1950. The woolen mill is two-and-one-half stories with four working levels. The mill was in operation for more than a century, beginning in 1808. [2]
