What Comes Down, Must Go Up!

A house without its roof is a beautiful thing… when the lack of roof, interior walls and other finishes allow you to see the fascinating timber-framed structure beneath. Last spring the Newport Restoration Foundation rescued the c.1800 Almy-Corey house by dismantling it and moving it to Prescott Farm. Now, it is being rebuilt, and you are invited to come tour its half-finished state. A slide lecture illustrating the dismantling and rebuilding process will accompany the tour. Autumn treats provided.
