    • Although set on a narrow lot, the generous setback lends an air of graciousness to this front-gabled, one and half storied house in buff brick. It was built in 1894 by David Cole, co-owner of the former Watson Woollen Mill. Attractive features are the bay window with bracketed roof and the small entrace porch. Here, turned wooden posts support a hipped roof which shelters the transomed entrance. The original door is present, with two, narrow roudn-arched panes.1a
