Harlan Log House, Colonial log house in Kennett Township, Pennsylvania, United States.
The Harlan Log House features a two-story square cabin measuring 26 feet by 26 feet with a stone addition measuring 19 feet by 15 feet.
Joshua Harlan, son of George Harlan who arrived in Pennsylvania in 1687, constructed this log house near Kennett Square around 1715.
The structure represents the adaptation of English settlers who incorporated Swedish log construction methods into their building techniques during colonial times.
The property spans 5 acres and maintains its original structural elements, allowing researchers to study early American construction methods.
The house combines English architectural preferences with Swedish log construction techniques, creating a distinct colonial-era residential structure.
