    Comments, Additional Information, References

    This house, set back to the south of 7354 Dysinger Road, is a two story structure with a wooden addition on the back (west). Multicolored stones are large and irregular with 4 rows to a quoin in the front and 3 rows on the sides. The irregularity of the stones tends to obscure the rows, particularly on the south side. When seen in October 1979, most of the house had the original mortar covered with cement to preserve the structure. Only one portion had the original mortar exposed; this was on the second floor in the rear, above the addition. The mortar, both horizontal and vertical, was laid in heavy ribbons, leaving the outer surface of the stones protruding past the mortar. The quoins and lintels are of stone, painted white.
