<p>The Keniston Bridge is a historic covered bridge in Andover, New Hampshire, carrying Bridge Street over the Blackwater River. Built in 1882, it is of Town through truss construction, and is one of the few surviving 19th-century covered bridges in the state. It is also one of the only ones whose sides are not fully sheathed, exposing the trusses. The bridge was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Keniston Bridge is located in a rural setting west of Andover&#39;s main village, carrying Bridge Street over the Blackwater River a short way south of USA Route 4. It is a single-span Town truss, mounted on granite bridge abutments that have been partially rebuilt in concrete. Much of the fabric of the bridge is original, although strengthening elements (wooden chords and steel beams) have been added to the trusses and the road bed, and portions of the downstream truss have been replaced. The bridge is topped by a wooden shingle roof, and measures 73 ft in length and 19 ft in width. The distance between the abutments on which it rests is 51 ft.</p><br>
<p>The bridge was built by a local builder, Albert Hamilton, and underwent repairs and renovations in 1949 and 1981. Most of the strengthening elements enabling it to carry heavier loads have been effectively hidden behind its sheathing or beneath its main structure. Unlike many of the state&#39;s surviving covered bridges, its sides are not completely sheathed, with vertical siding only rising about 5 ft. The bridge has survived in part because it is on a minor road that sees very little traffic.</p><br>
<p>Fair Oaks is a historic farmstead at 23718 New Mountain Rd. in Loudoun County, Virginia, near the village of Aldie. The -story wood-frame Italianate style house was built in 1881 by Alexander Moore, whose family operated the Aldie Mill for many years. The most prominent exterior decorative feature is the front porch, which features a delicately scroll-sawn balustrade and decorative brackets. Most of its interior woodwork has been preserved. The farmstead includes three other buildings dating to the same period, as well as the 1844 Moore family cemetery.</p><br>
<p>The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014.</p><br>

<p>The Old Welbourne Farm and Dulany Family Cemetery is a historic farmstead in Loudoun County, Virginia, near the village of Upperville. The main farmhouse, a brick three-story building, was built in the Queen Anne style, and remodeled in 1910, giving it more Colonial Revival stying. The 620+ acre property includes the site of a Welbourne family stone homestead, and the 1837 Dulany family cemetery, which was established when John Peyton Dulany lived in the old Welbourne homestead. Dulany was responsible for the construction of Welbourne, and died one of the county&#39;s wealthiest men. Colonel Richard Dulany, founder of the Piedmont Fox Hounds , which is the oldest fox hunting group in the United States, and the Upperville Colt & Horse Show , was born in the 1812 cabin on the property and is buried in the Dulany family cemetery on the property. The "Old Welbourne" house described here probably was built by Richard Dulany, Jr.</p><br>
<p>The United States Department of the Interior placed the property on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014. Old Welbourne is owned by a private family and is not open to the public.</p><br>
<p>The Washington Cotton Factory was built in 1865–67 on Mill Creek near Washington, Utah by Mormon settlers to process locally grown cotton for use by the settlers. The region of the Virgin River valley became known among Mormons as the "Cotton Mission," a project envisioned by Brigham Young to establish Mormon self-sufficiency.</p><br>
<p>The mill encountered difficulties in finding a reliable supply of raw cotton and suffered from an erratic water flow. It operated on and off until 1898, when it was permanently closed. It was subsequently used as a warehouse.</p><br>
<p>The sandstone building was initially completed with one story. Two more stories were added by 1870 to meet demand. A reservoir near the mill could provide ten hours of operation from fourteen hours of stored water.</p><br>
<p>The Washington Cotton Factory was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on April 16, 1971.</p><br>
<p>The Virginia Durant Young House, also known as Fairfax Public Library, is a historic home located at Fairfax, Allendale County, South Carolina. It was built in 1881, and is a -story frame, weatherboarded, vernacular Victorian cottage with a gable roof. It was the home of Virginia Durant Young, journalist, novelist, humanitarian, political activist and internationally recognized leader of the womens suffrage movement in South Carolina and the nation. The house rests on brick piers and has an irregular U-shaped plan that incorporated a medical office for Dr. William Jasper Young. Despite popular conventions of the time, Mrs. Young was the sole owner of the couples home and deeded the house to Dr. Young upon her death. The home also served as the office for Mrs. Youngs newspaper, the Fairfax Enterprise and as the office for Dr. Youngs medical practice. Upon the death of Dr. Young, the home was willed to the town of Fairfax for use as a public library and now houses the Fairfax Public Library. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.</p><br>
<p>Williams House, also known as the John Wilson Williams House, is a historic home located near Ulmer, Allendale County, South Carolina. The house consists of a residence built about 1800, with an addition built about 1906. It is a -story, three-bay, lateral gable-roofed, log and clapboard hall and parlor farmhouse. The main body of the house consists of two rooms measuring approximately 30 feet by 16 feet. The Williams Home Place has remained continually in the same family for more than 200 years.</p><br>
<p>It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1999.</p><br>
<p>Leavitt Farm is a historic farmstead at 103 Old Loudon Road in eastern Concord, New Hampshire. It consists of three 19th century farm buildings, including the c. 1847 Greek Revival farmhouse, a large c. 1888 shop and barn, and a 19th-century privy which has been converted into a well pumphouse. These buildings were built by Jonathan Leavitt, a farmer and blacksmith, and were later owned by his son Almah, a sign painter. In the 1980s the property was used by the Concord Coach Society  as a headquarters and museum facility. The shop building in particular is notable for its adaptive reuse , and for its second floor ballroom space, an unusual location for that type of social space. The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>Leavitt Farm is located in an increasingly less rural area of eastern Concord, on the north side of Old Loudon Road a short way west of its junction with Loudon Road (New Hampshire Route 9). The farm now consists of about 12.7 acre, bounded on the north by Interstate 393. The buildings are clustered near Old Loudon Road, with the house at the center, the barn to the left, the shop to the right, and the pumphouse behind the house. The house is a 1½-story Cape-style structure, with a gabled roof, central chimney, and clapboarded exterior. Its main entrance is flanked by sidelight windows, and is topped by a decorative panel incised with stars. The barn is finished in wooden clapboards and has an L shape, with the main gable facing the road and entrances facing front and right in the crook of the L. The shop is a two-story frame structure, with a utilitarian ground floor, and a ballroom on the upper level, finished in plaster with stencil decoration.</p><br>
<p>The property was developed by Jonathan Leavitt, who bought the land in 1847. Initially a farmer, in his later years he also worked as a blacksmith, work he performed in the shop building. It is likely that he hosted social events for the community in the ballroom on the shops second floor. Leavitts son Almah, who purchased the property from his father in 1888, used the shop to paint carriages and signs. In 1980, the property was purchased by a local historical society and adapted for use as a museum devoted to carriages. The society has since relocated to facilities at the fairgrounds in Hopkinton; this is now private property.</p><br>
<p>The William H. Long Memorial is a historic memorial building on Main Street in Hopkinton, New Hampshire. The brick, granite, and sandstone three-story building was constructed in 1890 as a memorial to a member of a prominent local family. The bequest stipulated that the building be used as a home for the local historical society, a function it continues to perform. It was also used to house the local public library. The building was designed by the Boston firm of Means & Gilbert, and is predominantly made of brick. The main entry, centered on the long wall, is recessed under a pilastered entablature topped by a semicircular tablet inscribed with the memorial inscription. Windows on the second floor are framed in ornamented stonework and topped by small oval oculus-like windows.</p><br>
<p>The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1977.</p><br>
<h2>William H. Long</h2><br>
<p>William Harrison Long was born in Hopkinton, New Hampshire on September 9, 1813. He was the son of Isaac Long and Susanna Kimball. Long graduated from Hopkinton academy and went on to graduate from Yale with his M.A. He began his career teaching in Utica and Boston. He accepted the position of headmaster at the Dearborn School to begin September 4, 1847 until his retirement on September 1, 1882. He married Lucia A.D. Rollins on December 25, 1845. Long died on November 5, 1886. Lucia erected the memorial building in memory of her husband.</p><br>
<h2>Hopkinton Historical Society</h2><br>
<p>The Hopkinton Historical Society, formerly known as the New Hampshire Antiquarian Society, is housed in the William H. Long Memorial Building, which was a gift to the Society in 1890. The Society offers exhibits of local history, lectures and tours, and maintains a collection of music scores, journals, diaries, books, maps, and artifacts.</p><br>
<p>The Sea Street Historic District encompasses a portion of North Weymouth, Massachusetts that encapsulates 300 years of history in the town. The district is centered on a triangular area bounded by North Street, Bridge Street, and Sea Street, with extensions along Shaw Street, Curtis Street, and North Street as far as south as Neck Street. Predominantly residential in character, the district includes more than 150 buildings, dating from the 17th to the 20th century. Its most prominent features include Beals Park  and the 1852 Greek Revival Congratational Church on Athens Street. Most of the district&#39;s early buildings are modest in character, and are sparingly decorated; one of the more elaborate of these is the Federal period house at 180 North Street/555 Bridge Street. The oldest structure in the district is believed to be the Bicknell House at 82-84 Sea Street, a -story Cape style house.</p><br>
<p>The district was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2009.</p><br>
<p>Fuller Brook Park is a public park of the town of Wellesley, Massachusetts. The park was established in 1899 as a roughly linear park for both recreational and flood control purposes, and did not reach mature completion until the 1930s. The park was designed by John Charles Olmsted  and others. The park runs roughly parallel to Washington Street through the central part of the town, along Fuller Brook and one of its tributaries, Caroline Brook. Despite its naturalistic appearance, the watercourses have been extensively channeled.</p><br>
<p>A large portion of the park, between Dover Road and Maugus Avenue but excluding the developed area of Hunnewell Field and Wellesley High School, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2013.</p><br>
<p>The Jacob Koons Farm is a historic farmstead at 1151 Otterdale Mill Road in rural Carroll County, Maryland, near Taneytown. The main farmhouse, a two-story rubble stone construction, was built in 1869. The property also includes several 19th century outbuildings, including a wood frame summer kitchen, a stone smokehouse, and a wooden barn.</p><br>
<p>The farm was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2011.</p><br>
<p>The Martinsville Fish Dam is a Native American weir in the Smith River near Martinsville, Virginia. The weir is a rough wall of piled rocks in a V shape with the point of the V downstream. At an opening in that point a basket could be used to catch fish that were funneled to that point by the walls of the weir.</p><br>
<p>The dam was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.</p><br>
<p>Rose Hill is the location of one of the oldest and least-altered buildings in Southampton County, Virginia, USA. Located near Capron, the Federal style house was built in the early 19th century by Henry Blow, on land his father had acquired from the local Nottoway Indians in 1792. The site is also of archaeological interest, with documented native uses into the 20th century.</p><br>
<p>After the Civil War, James R. Kello Sr. purchased the property. He resided at the residence with his wife, Mariah Thomas Kello, until his death on May 18, 1908. James and Mariah raised their family in this home. Their descendants still reside there today.</p><br>
<p>The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.</p><br>
<p>The Old Mission Inn, previously known as Hedden Hall or the Porter Hotel, is an inn located at 18599 Old Mission Road near Traverse City, Michigan. It was designated a Michigan State Historic Site in 1980 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>In 1867, George and Amanda Hedden purchased 37 acre of land that had previously been part of the nearby Old Mission, which had been abandoned in 1852. The Heddens constructed this 25-room inn on the property in 1874, and operated it as "Heddon Hall." In the 1880s, the railroad and steamship lines service in the area began promoting the Grand Traverse region as a summer tourist destination, and the Old Mission Inn was recognized as one of the best hotels in the area. In 1890, the Heddens added a section onto the inn.</p><br>
<p>The Heddens continued to run the inn until Amanda Hedden&#39;s death in 1900. It continues to be used as a historic inn.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Old Mission Inn is a -story L-shaped frame structure sided with clapboards, sitting on a cobblestone foundation, and covered with a shingled gable roof. The front features a wide open veranda and overhanging eaves supported by triangular brackets. Gabled dormers project from the roof.</p><br>

<p>The Winthrop Center/Metcalf Square Historic District encompasses the historic center of the city of Winthrop, Massachusetts. Although the area was settled early in Massachusetts history , the Winthrop peninsula remained sparsely populated until the 19th century. Its central area did not begin significant development until there was some industrial development in the first half of the 19th century, and accelerated with the arrival of the railroad later in the 19th century. It is centered on Metcalf Square, at the junction of Pauline, Hermon, and Winthrop Streets; the district extends northward along Hermon and Winthrop, and also includes properties as far east as Cross Street.</p><br>
<p>Most of the over 100 buildings in the district are residential, and were built between about 1880 and 1940. The oldest house in the district is believed to be 257 Winthrop Street, which is thought to have been built in the 1790s and restyled with Greek Revival details in the 19th century. (This is in contrast to Winthrop&#39;s oldest house, the c. 1675 Deane Winthrop House, which lies outside the district.) The most prominent buildings are the cluster of municipal and religious buildings around Metcalf Square: the Town Hall (1929) and Library (1898) are both Renaissance Revival structures, while the police station (formerly a post office) is a Colonial Revival building from 1932, and the Methodist Church is a Colonial/Classical Revival from 1930.</p><br>
<p>There are some fine examples of well-preserved 19th-century architectural styles in the district. Noteworthy Italianate houses include 11 George Street, whose gables are studded with decorative brackets indicative of the style, and 233 Winthrop Street, the city&#39;s only towered Italianate villa. Particularly good examples of Queen Styling are found at 180 and 272 Winthrop; the latter in particular is distinguished for its turret, which has a bulbous roof and carved wooden panel decorations.</p><br>
<p>The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2010.</p><br>
<p>The Revere City Hall and Police Station, located at 281 Broadway and 23 Pleasant Street, are the municipal heart of the city of Revere, Massachusetts. City Hall, a distinctive landmark on one of the city&#39;s major roads, is a -story brick Colonial Revival building that was built in 1897–98 to a design by Greenleaf and Cobb. The former police station, also a Colonial Revival brick building, was built in 1909 to a design by Hurd and Gore, and is situated just east of City Hall on the same parcel of land.</p><br>
<p>The city hall building was built at a time when Revere was still a town, and was first known as Town Hall; in addition to municipal offices, it initially also housed the public library. It was built on roughly the same site as Revere&#39;s first town hall, an 1835 Greek Revival structure destroyed by fire in 1897.</p><br>
<p>The cornerstone of the current building was placed on October 19, 1897. Senator Henry Cabot Lodge delivered an oration. The building was dedicated on January 11, 1899, this time with Lemuel K. Washburn delivering the oration.</p><br>
<p>Revere was reincorporated as a city in 1915. The former police station building served its original purpose for about 100 years, when the police were moved to new facilities on Revere Beach Parkway.</p><br>
<p>The buildings were listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2012.</p><br>
<p>The Merrimack County Bank building is a historic commercial building at 214 North Main Street in Concord, New Hampshire. The three-story brick Federal style building was built in 1826 to house the offices of the Merrimack County Bank on the first floor, law offices on the second floor, and a public meeting space above. In 1840, the upper floor was taken over by the New Hampshire Historical Society for use as a library. The Society significantly altered the interior in the early 20th century to convert this space for display purposes. In 1952 the building was acquired by the Christian Mutual Life Insurance Company, which restored the interior to its original Federal appearance, and sold the building to a law firm in the 1970s. The building also housed the law offices of future president Franklin Pierce.</p><br>
<p>The building stands on the east side of North Main Street, north of the main commercial section of downtown Concord. Its most distinctive external feature is its stepped gable ends. The five bays on the front facade are demarcated by blind arches that are slightly recessed from the main facade. Its center entry is sheltered by a pillared wooden portico added in 1921 by architect Guy Lowell as part of the Society&#39;s alterations.</p><br>
<p>The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. It is architecturally significant as a fine example of Federal period architecture, and historically significant for its association with Franklin Pierce, and with local historian Dr. Nathaniel Bouton, who wrote an important early history of Concord in a study in this building.</p><br>
<p>The former Merrimack County Courthouse stands at 163 North Main Street in Concord, New Hampshire, the state capital and county seat of Merrimack County. The oldest part of the courthouse building is a brick and granite two story structure, completed in 1857 to serve as a town hall and court building. The city and county used the building for town offices and county courts until 1904, when the city sold its interest in the building to the county. Between 1905 and 1907 the building was extensively remodeled to plans by local architect George S. Forrest. The courthouse has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1979. As of 2018, a new courthouse had been constructed to the rear of the building, and county offices were to be moved into the original building.</p><br>
<h2>Building history</h2><br>
<p>The site where the courthouse stands has been used for civic purposes since 1790, when Concord, then a town, built a townhouse on the site. That building was enlarged in 1823 when Merrimack County was created, with Concord as its shire town. That building served both town and county functions until 1855. The present building was built in response to the need for more space by both governments, and was completed in 1857 to a design by New Hampshire native Joshua L. Foster. That design had more Classical Revival features than the building has now, with a mainly granite exterior, a 33 ft dome on top and an arcaded front porch across the facade.</p><br>
<p>The building served both city and county in that form until 1904, when the city sold its interest in the building to the county, and built a new city hall. The county then decided to renovate rather than replace the building, work which was completed in 1907. Significant alterations included the removal of the dome and arcade, construction of the Renaissance entry pavilion, and refacing the exterior in brick. A modern wing was added to the front (east side) of the building in the 20th century.</p><br>
<p>The Millville School is a historic school building at 2 Fisk Road, just off Hopkinton Road in western Concord, New Hampshire. Built in 1923, it is a prominent local work of New Hampshire native Chase R. Whitcher, and is Concords only school in the Georgian Revival style. It is also the only surviving element of the historic village of Millville that is not part of the nearby St. Pauls School campus. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1985. It now houses Parker Academy, a private day school.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Millville School stands in a rural-residential area of western Concord, at the northeast corner of Hopkinton Road and Fisk Road. It is located across the street from the St. Paul&#39;s School campus. It is a single-story brick building with Georgian Revival features. It is covered by a hip roof, and has a projecting entry section, with a portico supported by grouped round Tuscan columns. Windows are set in rectangular openings with splayed keystoned stone lintels.</p><br>
<p>The Millville area of Concord developed in the late 18th century as a small industrial village, most of whose surviving remnants are part of the St. Pauls campus. The first public school was built on the south side of Hopkinton Street in 1801, and was replaced by a larger frame building in 1860. When St. Pauls sought to expand its campus in 1895, that building was moved across the street to this location. This building was constructed in 1923 to a design by New Hampshire architect Chase R. Whitcher, and is the only public building of that style in the city. The T-shaped building was extended in 1954 to add a kindergarten wing to the east, and underwent other relatively minor alterations in the 1980s, when the building was converted for use by a medical practice.</p><br>
<p>The Head of the River Historic District is a historic district encompassing a village area at the head of navigation of the Acushnet River, which separates Acushnet and New Bedford, Massachusetts. The village is centered at the junction of Tarkiln Hill Road, River Road, and Mill Road in New Bedford, and Main Street in Acushnet. The area went through two significant periods of development: the first was in the late 18th and early 19th century, and the second was in the early 20th century. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Head of the River Historic District is centered on the Acushnet River&#39;s head of navigation, a short way north of its mouth into New Bedford Harbor. The river is spanned by a bridge whose oldest portion is a stone-arch span that predates 1850, and was widened with steel spans in 1959. The bridge carries Main Street in Acushnet on the east side, and becomes Tarkiln Hill Road on the west side. The border between Acushnet and New Bedford comes up the river from the south, follows the bridge west, and then runs north on Mill Road, just west of the river. The oldest buildings of the district are clustered close to the bridge, while later development extends eastward along Main Street in Acushnet. The district contains only a few buildings in New Bedford on Tarkiln Hill Road and Mill Road, with most of the remaining properties in Acushnet fronting those roads and Main Street.</p><br>
<p>Head of the River was one of the principal points of early development by colonial settlers in what is now Acushnet, and saw its first significant period of growth after the American Revolutionary War. Acushnet was originally part of Dartmouth, then New Bedford and Fairhaven, before incorporating in 1860. The oldest surviving buildings in Head of the River date to the 1780s, including the 1-1/2 story Swift House (10 Mill Road) and the Dillingham House (19 Main Street) as examples of this early period. The building at 17 Tarkiln Hill Road, built c. 1800, is a rare commercial building from this period. The finest house from the period is the c. 1817 Hawes House at 17 Main Street. There are also several Greek Revival houses, but development languished in the area until the 20th century, when the Queen Anne house at 28 Main Street was built (c. 1900), along with a number of Craftsman and Dutch Colonial houses between then and about 1935.</p><br>
<p>Pocomoke Farm, now known as the Makemie Monument Park, is a historic site in rural Accomack County, on Virginia&#39;s Eastern Shore. The site is the location of the home and family cemetery of Francis Makemie , acknowledged as a founding leader of Presbyterianism in America. Now maintained as a park in honor of Makemie, the site includes a marker built in 1907 from building bricks and cemetery wall remnants found in the area.</p><br>
<p>The site was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2007.</p><br>
<p>The John Pulcipher House, also known as the Country Hermitage Bed & Breakfast, is a private house located at 7710 US 31 North, in Acme Township, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2000.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>John Pulcipher was born in Jefferson County, New York in 1838, the son of Edwin and Matilda Pulcipher. In 1855, he moved with his family to homestead on a farm located across the road from where this house now stands. He married Mary Ann Hoover in 1869; the couple had four children. In 1874, Pucipher purchased the original farm, and in 1883 he built this house for $2000. A summer kitchen addition was constructed in 1895. It was continuously inhabited until 1964, when John&#39;s niece Jessie died. It stayed empty until 1999, when Nels Veliquette, a local cherry farmer, purchased the house and surrounding property and began restoration. A modern kitchen addition was constructed, and the house was opened as the Country Hermitage Bed & Breakfast.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The John Pulcipher House is an unusually large and fine two-story Stick/Eastlake house. It has a hipped and cross-gable roof. It boasts elaborate millwork detail.</p><br>
<p>The Glebe House, also known as Daviss Choice, Turners Purchase, and incorrectly as the Samuel Chase House, is a historic house at 10950 Market Lane in Princess Anne, Maryland. The -story house was built in 1784 and is a rare instance of an 18th-century brick-ender, a building form that was once common on the Eastern Shore of Maryland. The house has three wood-frame walls, and the fourth is of brick laid in Flemish bond with a projecting water table. The house was substantially altered in the 1920s when its roof was raised and a second story was added, but this work was undone when the house underwent restoration around the turn of the 21st century. It was long thought to be of greater age, and the childhood home or birthplace of Samuel Chase, a signer of the United States Declaration of Independence, but documentary research has shown these connections to be incorrect.</p><br>
<p>The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009.</p><br>
<p>The Cullen Homestead Historic District encompasses a cluster of properties associated with the Cullen family in rural Somerset County, Maryland, United States. Located in the center of Hopewell, just northeast of Crisfield, the district has three main features. The first is, known as the Cullen Homestead, is a c. 1820 Federal style wood frame dwelling. The building has retained much of its interior period woodwork, despite being added to and altered over the years, and has retained its original board sheathing under modern aluminum siding. The second house in the district is a later 19th century house built by Jacob Hoke Cullen in 1880. The oldest part of the house is a T-shaped portion, which was roughly mirrored by a later addition around 1910, giving the house its present H shape. This house has also retained interior and some exterior finish work. The third element of the district is the family cemetery.</p><br>
<p>The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2009.</p><br>
<p>The Stone Ranch Stage Station is a stagecoach station located near USA Routes 20 and 26 northwest of Casper, Wyoming. The station opened in 1890 along a stagecoach line connecting Casper to Lander and Thermopolis. As railroads had not been built further than Casper, the stagecoach provided the primary means of bringing settlers and goods into central Wyoming. The stagecoach station provided food and shelter to travelers along the stagecoach line. After the Chicago and North Western Railway extended its line further into central Wyoming in the early 20th century, the stagecoach line became obsolete, and the station closed. It is one of the few Wyoming stagecoach stations which is still standing and relatively intact.</p><br>
<p>The station was added to the National Register of Historic Places on November 1, 1982.</p><br>
<p>The Robert D. Covington House was built in 1859 in Washington, Utah. Built for Mormon bishop Robert D. Covington, it was one of the first buildings in Washington and one of the largest in town, furnishing accommodation for visitors that included Brigham Young. The house&#39;s second floor originally consisted of one large room, allowing it to be used for assemblies and was especially handy for such household chores as drying fruit, quilting, weaving and the like. The second floor has since been subdivided. The Covington family living quarters were on the ground floor and basement.</p><br>
<p>The house is built of local red sandstone with two stories and a basement. It is an I-house with a rear extension. The house measures 21 ft by 39 ft with two chief rooms on the basement and first floor divided by a massive bearing wall. The west side of the house was stuccoed following a fire which burned the wooden stairs to the second floor. A front porch has been removed and a back extension added.</p><br>
<p>The Covington House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on April 20, 1978.</p><br>
<p>Throughout the years the house has gone through a number of owners. Inez Mitchell bought the house in 2001. It was for sale as of July 2, 2009, where The Covington House was then bought by Washington City in April 2012.</p><br>
<p>Most of the old landscaping was removed and has been redone with the intent to reflect how it may have appeared in a more historical state.</p><br>
<p>The Naegle Winery, also known as the Naile House, was built beginning in 1866 in Toquerville, Utah for German immigrant John C. Naegle, who moved to southern Utah after making a small fortune in gold panning in California. Naegle made sacramental wine for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints  until wine was discontinued by the church in the late 19th century. The wine industry declined and the winery was converted to can figs, and later to process peaches.</p><br>
<p>The rectangular two story sandstone building measures about 65 ft by 33 ft. It has a full basement and a shallow-pitched hip roof. Walls are coursed rubble, with dressed stone lintels, quoins and a water table. The roof eaves have a bracketed wood cornice. As built, the structure may have also served as a residence.</p><br>
<p>The Naegle Winery was placed on the National Register of Historic Places on February 20, 1980.</p><br>
<p>The South Henderson Church is a historic Presbyterian church located in rural Henderson County, Illinois, north of the village of Biggsville. The church was built in 1854; it was the second church building used by the local Associate Reformed Presbyterian congregation, which formed in 1835 and built its first church two years later. The vernacular building has a wood frame plan and limestone walls and used local materials in its construction, which cost $3,855.55. Reverend Robert Ross led the congregation when it built the 1854 church; Ross was one of the founders of Monmouth College and served on its first Board of Trustees.</p><br>
<p>The congregation&#39;s cemetery is located east of the church; an unpaved road separates the church and cemetery. An iron fence dated 1920 surrounds the cemetery. The gravestones in the cemetery are generally well-maintained, and some of the oldest ones mark the graves of Revolutionary War veterans.</p><br>
<p>South Henderson, now part of the United Presbyterian Church, disorganized in 1954, and the Old South Henderson Cemetery Association now cares for the site. The church and cemetery were added to the National Register of Historic Places on October 14, 1976.</p><br>
<p>The Morrill-Lassonde House is a historic house at 150 King Street in Boscawen, New Hampshire. Built about 1769, it is believed to be the oldest surviving house in the town. Historically significant residents include clock mechanism inventor Benjamin Morrill and artist Omer T. Lassonde, a founder of the New Hampshire Art Association. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984. Given by Lassonde&#39;s widow to the New Hampshire Art Association, it is now in private ownership.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Morrill-Lassonde House is located in southeastern Boscawen, on the east side of King Street (USA Route 3, roughly opposite its junction with Berle Drive. It is a 2½-story wood-frame structure, with a gabled roof, central chimney, and clapboarded exterior, set well back from the road and overlooking the floodplain of the Merrimack River. Its front façade is five bays wide, with the entrance at the center, flanked by a Greek Revival surround of pilasters and corniced entablature.</p><br>
<p>The house was built c. 1769 for Rev. Robie Morrill, and is believed to be the oldest surviving structure in Boscawen. It is also thought to occupy the site of the oldest fortification in the town. Morrill&#39;s grandson Benjamin invented the wheelbarrow clock movement in this house. In the 20th century, the house was owned by artist Omer T. Lassonde, a New Hampshire native who played a leading role in arts organizations in the state from the 1930s to his death in 1980 and cofounded the New Hampshire Art Association. He eventually donated the house, along with his furnishings and studio, to the New Hampshire Art Association.</p><br>
<p>The Murray Hill Summer Home District is a collection of farmhouses and related buildings on Murray Hill Road, a rural road in Hill, New Hampshire. The area is distinctive as a cohesive collection of rural properties that were adapted for use as summer estates between 1873 and 1937, the start date representing an early transition from agricultural to tourist use of such properties in the state. The district has eight farmhouses that were adapted, and two Shingle style houses, as well as one 19th-century district schoolhouse that has been repurposed as a meeting space. All are located on Murray Hill Road between Cass Mill Road and Lynch  Road. The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.</p><br>
<p>Murray Hill Road, located in northwestern Hill, very roughly follows a terrace at an elevation of about 1,000 ft on the north side of a ridge whose peaks are Page and Dickinson Hills (elevations 1,600 ft and 1,800 ft respectively). Remnants of the area&#39;s agricultural past survive in the form of abandoned roads and farm tracks, and stone walls which line fields and wooded areas. In 1873 John Murdock began buying up land in the area, which he subdivided for the development of summer houses. Land was typically transferred between family members and friends. By the time the state was involved in organized attempts to adapt abandoned farms for the summer tourist trade, the Murray Hill area had for the most part already been transformed. One typical property is the Chandler property, which includes a farmhouse built c. 1810, and operated primarily as a farm until 1878. The owners then began taking in summer boarders to supplement declining farm income. The Chandlers acquired the property in 1927, and began a series of modifications to adapt it as a summer property.</p><br>
<p>The New Hampshire Savings Bank Building is a historic commercial building at 97 North Main Street in downtown Concord, New Hampshire, across Capitol Street from the New Hampshire State House. The five story granite building was built in 1926-27 for what is now the oldest bank in the city, and was the only bank building built in the city in the first half of the 20th century. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.</p><br>
<p>New Hampshire Savings Bank was founded in 1830, as the fourth in the state and third in the city. It first occupied part of the Merrimack County Bank building at 214 North Main Street, followed by Stickneys Block, which stood just south of the Eagle Hotel, roughly across North Main Street from this building. The bank purchased Stickneys in 1885, demolished it, and built the commercial block now on that site. Seeking a larger space in the early 1920s, it purchased a three-story block on this site, demolished it in 1925, and built the present building. Its major design work was done by Joseph D. Leland of Boston, with local support from George W. Griffin. Granite for the building&#39;s construction came from the Rattlesnake Hill quarry in West Concord. The building originally had two full-size floors, with U-shaped upper floors; the open U was enclosed in 1986. The lower two floors were at first mainly occupied by a large banking hall, which had a two-story ceiling; offices of the president and bank trustees were located on a mezzanine level.</p><br>
<p>Lewisfield Plantation is a historic plantation house located near Moncks Corner, Berkeley County, South Carolina. It was built about 1774, and is a 2 1/2-half story clapboard dwelling. It is supported by a high brick foundation that encloses a raised basement. It has a five bay wide verandah supported by six slender Doric order columns. Records show over 100 slaves were held in bondage on the plantation as of 1835.</p><br>
<p>Lewisfield fronts on the Cooper River and was bounded by Exeter Plantation to the north and Mulberry Plantation to the south. Sedgewick Lewis bought the 1000 acre plantation in 1767 from Baronet John Colleton. At that time, the plantation was known as Little Landing, but it was later known as Lewisfield because of Lewis&#39; ownership. Lord Cornwallis was a guest of Lewis when Cornwallis was heading to Charleston from Camden.</p><br>
<p>A Revolutionary War skirmish occurred directly in front of the house when Colonel Wade Hampton (1752–1835) surprised a British force that had stopped at Lewisfield Plantation to await a paroled prisoner of war, Keating Simons, who was the owner of the plantation at the time.</p><br>
<p>In 1937, Robert R.M. Carpenter bought the estate for $50,000 from the Lewisfield Club, a collection of owners. Carpenter intended to use the house as a duck hunting property in the winters. In 1948, Carpenter sold the plantation (by then increased to 2500 acres) to the Williams Furniture Corporation of Sumter, South Carolina. The business bought the house not for the historic plantation house but rather to secure several million board feet of lumber growing on about 1500 acres of the estate; the business did not have immediate plans for the portion of the estate with the house and hunting grounds.</p><br>
<p>South Carolinian politician Rembert Dennis lived on the plantation.</p><br>
<p>It was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1973.</p><br>
<p>Under new ownership, the house and grounds are undergoing a massive renovation and restoration to save both house and grounds.</p><br>
<p>Otranto Plantation is a historic plantation house located in Hanahan, Berkeley County, South Carolina. It was built before 1778, and is a 1 1/2-half story, rectangular gable-roofed stuccoed brick dwelling. It has an attached colonnaded piazza, or porch, on three sides. Also on the property is a contributing small frame servants’ house.</p><br>
<p>In 1934, the house was destroyed by a fire. The house was meticulously restored based upon photographs before the fire.</p><br>
<p>It was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.</p><br>
<p>The Park Hotel was a seven-story hotel in downtown Hot Springs, Arkansas near Bathhouse Row within Hot Springs National Park. Built in 1930 by Thompson, Sanders and Ginocchio in the Spanish Revival style, the hotel was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. It closed in 2020.</p><br>
<h2>Architecture</h2><br>
<p>The rectangular, seven-story building features restrained Spanish Revival architecture details. A cut stone entrance wing projects toward the street, leading to a double-leaf brass door flanked by casement windows. An ornamented parapet features a shield and foliate design with the hotels name also detailed. A porch wraps around the hotels entrances.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>The Park Hotel was built during a period of growth in Hot Springs, including several other buildings designed by the same firm. The Riviera Hotel and Wade Clinic, as well as several residential structures and churches were built during this period.</p><br>
<p>President Harry Truman was known to frequent the hotel, preferring room 401, a corner room with a view of the Hot Springs Grand Promenade.</p><br>
<p>Otranto Plantation Indigo Vats are historic indigo vats located near Goose Creek, Berkeley County, South Carolina. Indigo vats are where fermentation and settlement processes for production of indigo dyestuff were accomplished. Each vat measures approximately 14 feet square and has a stuccoed interior. The upper vat, known as the "steeper vat", was used for the fermentation of indigo plants with the liquor drawn through a small portal into the "beater vat" below. The liquor was agitated, allowed to settle, and the remaining sludge strained, molded into cakes, and dried. The Otranto Plantation Indigo Vats were relocated by the Verona Chemical Company, later Mobay Corporation, from Otranto Plantation to their present site in 1979 to save them from demolition. They are the only such structures know to be in existence in South Carolina.</p><br>
<p>It was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.</p><br>
<p>The Bowers Harbor Inn is a restaurant located at 13512 Peninsula Drive in Peninsula Township, Michigan. It was constructed in 1928 as a private house, the Stickney Summer House, and renovated into the restaurant in the late 1950s; it now houses the Mission Table and Jolly Pumpkin Restaurants. The site overlooks the waters of Bowers Harbor, an inlet of Grand Traverse Bay. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2011.</p><br>
<h2>History</h2><br>
<p>Charles Francis Stickney was born in 1868 in Groveland, Massachusetts, the son of Charles Stickney and Julia G. Noyes. He married Genevive (Jennie) E. Worthen in 1891. By 1900 the couple had moved to Chicago, where Stickney made a fortune in the steel and lumber industries. They soon began travelling to the Grand Traverse area, likely taking advantage of the Pere Marquette Railway summer trains that ran from Chicago to Petoskey, Michigan.</p><br>
<p>In 1920, the Stickneys purchased this property, then a typical Old Mission Peninsula farm with a rather large orchard. They continued the farming use of the property and canned preserves from the orchard harvest, offering them for sale. In 1928, the Stickneys hired Jennie Stickney&#39;s nephew, Kenneth B. Worthen, to design a new summer house for their property. Worthern was at the time a principal of Bentley-Worthen Architects in St. Paul, Minnesota, and had made a name for himself by designing many large Twin City residences, many in a distinctive storybook English Cottage style. Worthern designed this 26-room Arts and Crafts, Storybook style house for the couple. The house was built at a cost of $175,000, and the Stickneys dubbed it the We-Gwa-Se-Min Ranch.</p><br>
<p>Jennie Stickney died in 1947 in Grand Rapids, Michigan and Charles Stickney died two year later in Traverse City. They added a microbrewery, turned the Bowery restaurant into The Jolly Pumpkin Restaurant, Microbrewery & Distillery, and turned the Bowers Harbor Inn Restaurant into the Mission Table Restaurant & Tasting Room. The building continues to house the two restaurants, one for fine dining and one casual.</p><br>
<h2>Description</h2><br>
<p>The Stickney Summer House is a large, two story frame Storybook style structure. It consists of the main 1928 house on the west, a "carriage house" on the east (which may have been constructed earlier), and an addition which connects the two separate structures. The main section of the house is approximately 100 ft by 25 ft and faces the lake. The east section, containing the "carriage house" and the connector addition, extends approximately 80 ft to the east, giving the entire building a T shape.</p><br>
<p>The front facade of the house has a central bay with a recessed entrance. The entrance has a heavy wooden door with iron strap hinges, surrounded by glass lights. Above the entrance is a pair of French doors opening onto a small balcony with a wrought iron railing. To the left of the entrance bay is a projecting bay holding a two-story porch with a shallow hip roof. To the right is a three-bay wide section with a central three-sided bay window flanked by a single tall window on each side.</p><br>
<p>The north side of the house has three small first-floor windows and none on the second floor. This section was originally an open porch, but was enclosed in the 1960s. The south side of the house is dominated by a massive fieldstone and brick end chimney. A pair of French doors flank the chimney on the first floor, and an oriel window protrudes from the chimney&#39;s center at the second floor level. A concrete terrace runs across the entire front facade of the building and extends to the south side.</p><br>
<p>The rear of the house is relatively featureless, with windows only on the second floor. An gable-roofed addition connects the house with a "carriage house" (now the Bowery Restaurant), which is a two-story hip roof structure.</p><br>
<p>The interior of the structure has an Arts and Crafts look, with dark stained wood floors and wood trim throughout the restaurant. The front door opens onto an entrance hall with a flagstone floor and a curved staircase with a wrought iron railing. Arched doorways open from there onto two dining rooms. The south one has a polished flagstone floor, plaster walls, a wood cross beam ceiling, and a massive stone fireplace with a rustic beam mantel and flagstone hearth. The north dining room has a brick fireplace, wood cross beam ceilings, and a wooden bar. The upstairs contains rooms which were formerly bedrooms.</p><br>
<p>Pilgrim Congregational Church is a historic church building at 540-544 Columbia Road in the Dorchester neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts. The brick Romanesque Revival building was built 1890–1893 to a design by Worcester architect Stephen C. Earle. The congregation for which it was built was established in 1862; this was its second purpose-built church. The congregation was divided when the Romsey Congregational Church was established in 1893 to serve congregants living closer to Savin Hill; the two congregations were reunited in 1930, and stained glass windows from the Romsey Church were installed in this building.</p><br>
<p>The Pilgrim Church was subjected to a severely damaging fire in October 1970. Although it was restricted to the sanctuary, there was extensive water and smoke damage, and five stained glass windows (including the three from the Romsey Church) were destroyed. The congregation decided to rebuild the main sanctuary as a multipurpose fellowship hall and now worships in the chapel.</p><br>
<p>The church was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2013.</p><br>
<p>The Sarah Davidson Apartment Block is a historic commercial and multifamily residential building at 3 Gaylord Street in the Dorchester neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts. The three-story brick, sandstone and copper Classical Revival building was constructed in 1901 to a design by A. B. Pinkham. The building, located at the corner of Gaylord and Washington Streets, has three commercial storefronts facing Washington Street, which are separated by sandstone piers. The residential entrance lies on Gaylord Street recessed in a rounded sandstone archway. The exterior of the upper floors consists of protruding sections finished in pressed copper, including a rounded corner section, and sections of brick. A heavy denticulated copper cornice overhangs both street-facing facades.</p><br>
<p>The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2013. It is one of the oldest brick apartment buildings in the Codman Square area.</p><br>
<p>The Egleston Substation is a historic electrical substation building located at 3025 Washington Street in the Roxbury neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts, just north of Egleston Square. The brick Renaissance Revival building was constructed in 1909 by the Boston Elevated Railway  during the extension of the Washington Street Elevated to Forest Hills.</p><br>
<p>The building is 87 ft long, 52 ft wide, and 46 ft high. Its most prominent feature is the massive archway that frames the main entrance on Washington Street. The building was designed by Robert S. Peabody of Peabody and Stearns. The building was use by the Boston Elevated and its successors to provide AC to DC conversion for streetcars and elevated trains until 1987, at which time it was one of the oldest such substations in the nation. The building was essentially abandoned and fell into disrepair, with its roof in failure in 2005. It was then acquired by local nonprofits, who have converted it for use as office and television studio space.</p><br>
<p>The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2010.</p><br>
<p>The Wilkins Farm is a historic farmstead at 989 Swover Creek Road in rural Shenandoah County, Virginia, near Edinburg. The home was recognized under three criterion. Criterion A under Exploration/Settlement as a late 18th-century German farmstead, Criterion B in the area of Art as the boyhood home of fraktur artist Emanuel Wilkins, and Criterion C for Architecture of German builders who used native materials of limestone, hardwoods and Yellow pine. The primary dwelling on the farm was a frontier log structure, c.1776 that was evolved to a two-story midland folk, log home c. 1789. The older portion, a simple log cabin, was built by Augustine Cofman in order to satisfy the requirements of a land grant he had received the prior year, which required placement of a dwelling on the 188.5 acre grant.

<p>The district was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2014.</p><br>
<p>Richmond Plantation, also known as Girl Scout Plantation, is a national historic district located near Cordesville, Berkeley County, South Carolina. It was built about 1927, and includes a manor house and outbuildings constructed as a hunting lodge for George A. Ellis, a prominent New York financier and co-founder of E. F. Hutton & Co.</p><br>
<p>The manor house is a -story, asymmetrical brick building with a rectangular central mass, and two single story wings—an American interpretation of the Shavian Manor Style, defined by the neo-medieval work of the English architect Richard Norman Shaw. Also on the property are four outbuildings in the Shavian Manor Style: a carriage house, dog house, guest house, and gate house. Additional features of the property include a one-story log house, three one-story frame cabins, a cemetery, and archaeological remains of the original 18th and 19th century rice plantation. In 1963 the property was sold to the Low Country Girl Scout Council, who maintained it as a camp until 2011. The property was sold, via absolute auction, to a private buyer in 2013 but remains under the terms of a conservation easement.</p><br>

Halidon Hill Plantation is associated with the lowcountry rice culture and was historically part of Middleburg Plantation.</p><br>
<p>It was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.</p><br>
<p>Cainhoy Historic District is a national historic district located near Huger, Berkeley County, South Carolina. It encompasses nine contributing buildings, which range in date from the mid-18th century through the early-20th century. They represent the development of the village from a ferry landing to a small but thriving river port. It was the site of Americas first porcelain factory, established by John Bartlam in 1765. Each building is a vernacular specimen from its respective period, including the Federal style. Cainhoys significance lies in its role as an early transportation link between inland Berkeley County and Charleston and in its fine collection of early buildings. In 1876, Cainhoy was the site of a political rally for Wade Hampton  which degenerated into a brawl between blacks and whites. Christened the "Cainhoy Massacre," the incident left seven men dead and sixteen wounded.</p><br>
<p>It was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1982. In 2014, plans were made to develop the environmentally significant and sensitive Cainhoy Peninsula.</p><br>
<p>Pinopolis Historic District North is a national historic district located at Pinopolis, Berkeley County, South Carolina. It encompasses six contributing buildings on four of the 19th century retreats that helped to engender Pinopolis. The vernacular houses are uniformly of frame construction and abstain from the stylistic pretensions of the permanent planters seats of the period in accord with their status as houses of retreat. The buildings in the district date from about 1834 to about 1883 and retain in large measure their original forms and features. The districts landscape is unified by the absence of contemporary buildings, heavy foliage, the absence of paved roads, and the cohesiveness of the four residences which are weatherboarded with large porches, reflecting the Queen Anne style.</p><br>
<p>It was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.</p><br>
<p>Pinopolis Historic District South is a national historic district located at Pinopolis, Berkeley County, South Carolina. It encompasses 12 contributing buildings and consists of the historic core of the planters retreat community of Pinopolis. The district contains numerous early to middle-19th century summer houses, the Gothic Revival influenced Pinopolis Methodist Church , and other later 19th century buildings including some in the Queen Anne style. The buildings of the Pinopolis Historic District South are representative of the development of vernacular building forms and construction technology of the 19th century. The absence of stylistic pretensions in most of the buildings is typical of pineland village architecture.</p><br>
<p>It was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.</p><br>
<p>Pineville Historic District is a national historic district located at Pineville, Berkeley County, South Carolina. It encompasses seven contributing buildings and illustrates Pineville&#39;s original role as a 19th-century pineland village, and its gradual transformation to agricultural land and to a year-round community in the late-19th and early-20th centuries. The Pineville Historic District consists of four principal buildings, three residential buildings and one Episcopal church, ranging in date from about 1810 through 1925. The architectural styles represented include Federal, Greek Revival, and Bungalow. In the mid to late-19th century, Pineville was a densely settled village that included as many as one hundred buildings, including an academy, racetrack, library, churches, and residences. Much of the town was burned by Union troops at the close of the American Civil War in April 1865. In the years following the war, much of the land that made up the village was converted for use as farmland. Since that time, Pineville has remained a small community of less than 20 structures surrounded by open farm and hunting lands.</p><br>
<p>It was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1992.</p><br>

<p>The Jacob Noyes Block is a historic commercial building at 48 Glass Street in the Pembroke side of Suncook, New Hampshire. Built about 1865, it is a distinctive local example of Italianate commercial architecture, and is the largest 19th-century commercial building in the village. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.</p><br>
<h2>Description and history</h2><br>
<p>The Jacob Noyes Block is located about one block east of the modest 19th-century commercial heart of Suncook, on the north side of Glass Street at its junction with Church Street. It is a handsome vernacular brick building with Italianate styling, three stories in height, with a flat roof. The ground floor has two storefronts, each with a recessed entry flanked by display windows, each of these elements set in a round-arch opening. The storefronts flank the main building entrance, also recessed in a round-arch opening. Upper-story windows are set in segmented-arch openings, headed by corbelled brick hoods. The windows are set in what appears as a recessed panel, defined by corner pilasters and brick beltcourses above the first floor and below the roof eaves.</p><br>
<p>The block was built by Jacob Noyes, a trader, as a speculative venture, in c. 1865. Noyes apparently believed that commercial development would proceed from the main village center of Suncook up Glass Street, but it never did, and the building (then as now), stands isolated from other period commercial buildings. The meeting space on the building&#39;s upper floor is also notable as the site of meetings of the secret Société Sainte Jean Baptiste, a social and political organization of French-Canadians who had come in large numbers to work in the Suncook mills.</p><br>
