Jericho Road off #3
City Directories and History: “Built by John Lawton ca. 1850, Jericho is a raised Greek Revival influenced cottage with a board and batten exterior. The steep gable roof has a box cornice. A one-story verandah supported by four square columns with a lattice balustrade extends across the three-bay-wide facade. Entrances are highlighted by rectangular transoms and sidelights. The central hall floor plan (two rooms on either side of the hall) and two interior chimneys are highlights of this house.”
