Also historical plaque: "This property was home to one family for two centuries."

  • Symbol confirmed.svg Article was promoted to GA status on 21 Feb. Long enough, within policy. Hook is short enough, interesting, and covered by the Historic Places ref (which loads for me). QPQ is done. Picture looks good. Overall, good to go! Thanks. Mike Peel (talk) 23:33, 24 February 2017 (UTC)
