Pomeroy Living History Farm

Tour
 

The Log House was built in 1920 by E.C. Pomeroy and his son Tom with trees cut on the property.  It was the family's third house on the farm and is the second one on this site.  The brick chimney and fireplace are all that remain from the earlier house which burned in 1920.  Special features to observe are the wooden floors, hand-planed moulding, pictures of the early family and an extensive collection of English brass rubbings.  Upstairs there is the dresser with a secret drawer and in the dining room is a very special piece of furniture that is a bed, dresser, bookcase desk, and closet all in one.  The family has always called it "The Bed".

To your right you will see the Pomeroy House Gift Shop which is located in the old carriage house (which also served as the wash house and cream separating building).  The shop features a year-round Christmas corner, fine English china, and many other unique handcrafted items from the British Isles and around the world.
