Wood-frame farmhouse on Welling Court, near Hallett’s Cove. April, 1925. Photographer Eugene L. Armbruster notes “Furman occupied the house many years.” The house appears on the Beers map of 1873, with no owner listed. The house has been significantly altered, with shingled siding replaced by vinyl, but its frame appears intact.

Still standing (2020) it may be an 18th century survivor perhaps built when the area was a large British camp during the American Revolution. A number of adjacent buildings are gone (as of 2018) despite pleas for saving or at least conducting an archaeological assessment. A former tenant in one of the removed buildings, as a child, found a number of early 19th century coins in his yard.
