Description and history
It is a 1-1/2 story gambrel-roofed wood frame structure with a large central chimney. The main block is four bays wide and three deep, with a rear ell connecting the house to a 20th-century garage. Documentary evidence suggests it was built in 1793, while architectural evidence suggests an earlier construction date. The house is a well-preserved example of a typical vernacular 18th-century Rhode Island farmhouse, and is one of the few 18th century houses remaining in the city.[2]

gollark: I'm thinking one bit per second.
gollark: ToggleNet, as we could call it, could be just like Redstonet but even more glacially slow.
gollark: Except the maximum length is variable... aaaa.
