English: Winslow Ward House, 34 Canal Street, Brattleboro Vermont. Also called "Cobblestone House" due to its unusual construction material. Built ca. 1850.
From the NRHP nomination:
Its first owner, Winslow Ward, owned a shoe store in the old Estey pump and pipe shop on the Whetstone Brook in 1846. This house represents one of two documented examples of cobblestone architecture in Vermont. This kind of construction was common in western New York and in the Great Lakes region. The origin of the stones used in this house is unknown. The abundant farmland in Brattleboro was a possible source, but more probably, the cobbles were collected from the nearby Whetstone Brook.
