The Lattice Cottage is a historic summer house on the slopes of Mount Monadnock in Dublin, New Hampshire, United States. Built as an estate guest house in 1929 to a design by Harry Little of Boston, Massachusetts, it is a distinctive example of Arts and Crafts architecture. [2]
The Lattice Cottage is located on the grounds of the former Amory country estate, a large tract of land rising on the northern slope of Mount Monadnock between Old Troy Road to the west and the mountain's Pumpelly Ridge to the east. It is accessed via a private road that snakes across the historic estate. It stands in a grassy clearing east of the site of the estate's main house (no longer extant). It is a 1+1⁄2-story wood-frame structure with a significant stone base, with a steeply pitched gabled roof and exterior finished in wooden shingles and brick. It has a busy roof line, with multiple gables and dormers, and its windows are predominantly diamond-pane casements. [2]
