Notes
  • Significance: The Gray House was built ca. 1836-46, and is more sophisticated in design and appearance than most of the local vernacular constructed during this period. The rectangular brick structure is distinguished by a symmetrical five-bay facade articulated by giant pilasters, a recessed central entrance framed by fluted Greek Doric columns in antis, and topped by a low gable roof trimmed with a wide denticulated entablature, punctuated at regular intervals by elaborate cast-iron grille openings. Hugh Gray came to Fayette County from Vermont in the late 1810s, settling here in the 30s, becoming a prosperous farmer in the area. The house remained in the Gray family for more than eighty years, and has been excellently maintained since it was erected in the early 19th century.
