Oak Hill Cottage, Gothic Revival residence in Mansfield, United States.
Oak Hill Cottage is a two-story residential building in Mansfield featuring decorative brick construction and tall windows typical of 1840s Gothic Revival design. The house displays ornate trim work and architectural details that reflect the craftsmanship of its era.
John Riley Robinson, a railroad superintendent, built the house in 1847 on a site near the railroad tracks. The location allowed him to manage his duties while residing in an elegant home.
The cottage gained attention in local literary circles after appearing in Louis Bromfield's novel 'The Green Bay Tree'. Visitors can observe how the house became part of the cultural memory of the region through this literary connection.
The house welcomes visitors and offers direct insight into 19th century life with guided experiences. Planning ahead is advisable, as group visits and tours may require prior arrangement.
The interior preserves personal belongings from the Jones family dating to the Victorian period, including clothing, photographs, and household objects. These items offer a rare glimpse into the daily reality of a prosperous household during that time.
