Notes
Survey number HABS ME-76

Building/structure dates: 1788 initial construction
Significance: This structure is characteristic of a small late 18th century farmhouse native to the area. The compact dwelling unit centered around its fireplaces and the attached outbuildings clearly indicate the severity of the climate. This structure was built in 1788 by Miles Cobb, a blacksmith from Bridgewater, Maine, who prospered with the community and became a prominent merchant.
