Description and history

The Caleb Wiley House is set on the north side of North Street, a major east-west route through residential areas of northwestern Stoneham, amid 20th-century residential houses that are mostly on smaller lots. It is a 2-1/2 story wood frame house, five bays wide, with a side-gable roof, twin rear-wall chimneys, clapboard siding, and a granite foundation. Window and door surrounds are simple, with the second-floor windows butting against the cornice, a typical Federal period feature. Its front door is sheltered by a portico that is early 20th century in appearance, and has flanking sidelight windows.[2] A screen porch is attached to the left side, and a modern addition is attached to the rear.

The house was built about 1826 by Caleb Wiley, at a time when North Street was lined with larger properties mainly in agricultural use. The original 47-acre (19 ha) lot of this house has long since been subdivided into residences, but this property retains mature plantings, and the main house is relatively little-altered since its construction.[2]

gollark: IRCv3 can do this (except the accounts) but there aren't many implementations.
gollark: And reactions and such.
gollark: My ideal chat thing would probably be IRC with emailish global accounts, and server-integrated history/bouncer features.
gollark: Message IDs, at least, are a fairly basic and critical feature. If you offload important things to modules you can't rely on them and clients which don't support them might randomly break things.
gollark: And XMPP has modules for things as stupidly basic as message IDs and I think server stored message history.
