The Work of Our Hands Tennant House (undated photo), built 1840-1848 by shoemaker Richard Tennant in the popular Gothic and Greek Revival styles. Tennant also built a barn to match his "queerish architectural gem." A Tennant descendant recalled a three-foot stone wall in front with an iron picket fence atop, a large double iron gate, a gravelled drive hedged with privet circling the house, and an old-fashioned garden. The verandah wrapped around the house with steps in front of the main entrance. Albert Goold, son of second owner Col. James Goold had no romantic notions about the house, stating: " That house may interest this generation but I don't want anything to do with it. That was the coldest damn house in the village. We had to keep three fireplaces going full blast to keep it warm."
