Photos show the house located at 1 Prospect Street on the south side of the street at the corner of Cedar Street near the railroad tracks. Built before 1750, with later renovations, the Federal style house is of wood frame construction and has a clapboard exterior. The site was the location of the homestead of Deacon Thomas Kendall, one of the town's earliest settlers. The house was reconstructed during the residence of a later owner, James Emerson, perhaps in the 1780s.
