Excellent video- the engraving inside a bar reminded me of Raleigh Tavern in Williamsburg- they had the liquor in a “booth” like that to keep people from stealing it when the barkeep stepped away. Drone footage was 👍
Similar in design on those corners of that building to Carlyle House in Alexandria, VA. Also Aquia Episcopal 1751 also has that corner detail, long-lasting detail for a great structure!
Love the pic of the old car stuck in the mud. Route one was a mess haha. Great building. When have been nice if the County restored the inside to a working bar not offices
Love the show chris.
Thinking of you Bev!

Amazing that the house has survived hundreds of years so close to a main road. It’s seen transportation from stagecoaches to Teslas go past its door
It has seen a lot. lol

I would definitely visit then. lol
Always wondered about that place and why it was never open as a historical site
I lived there in the early 80s before the fence .back then it looked out of place being so close to route 1
Fitzhugh Lee was also the 40th Governor of Virginia
Each side has a different brick pattern, interesting
Shout out to Dumfries!
You are correct about the flag across the street. It's Hawaii's state flag. The Hawaiian Islands were once placed under the protection of England.
"all header facade" What does that mean?
Bricks are laid so the ends "headers" make up the outside of the wall.
I wonder who was the construction crew? I work as a laborer , I wonder what the workers were paid. Just beautiful a structure it is.. hmmm😊
