Description and history
It is a two-story brick structure, with a gambrel roof pierced by gabled dormers, a four bay wide facade, and a central chimney. A single-story ell extends to the rear. The house was built in about 1735 for Ichabod Wood, and is locally significant as the only surviving pre-1850 brick house in the town. The bricks for the house were locally produced at a brickworks situated on the nearby Palmer River. Seth Knapp Jr., a later owner, made shoes on the property.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on June 6, 1983.[1]
