William Pitcher Farmstead HSR

side is a mid-20th-century concrete-block
framed dairy barn. This section has a concrete
floor with gutters, remnants of stanchions, and
a dairy room. The last addition is a two-bay
structure coming off the south gable end of the
hay barn. One bay is for storage and the other
appears to have been a common room for
laborers with lockers and a table and chairs. To
the east of this complex are a free-standing
horse shed and a corn crib.
The house and barns are located at the southeast
corner of an 86-acre parcel of land, nearly half of which
is under cultivation. The property is bordered to the
north, east, and west primarily by open agricultural land.
The southern boundary of the property is Pitcher Lane.
Carved out of the southern edge of the property to the
west of the WIlliam Pitcher farmhouse is a three-acre
parcel of land with a large Italianate Victorian house on
it that dates to 1875. This lot was part of the Pitcher
family property until the mid-20th century.
