Walker-Ewing Log House, Log house in Collier Township, US.
The Walker-Ewing Log House features six fireplaces arranged in a herringbone pattern, with two on each floor and two in the basement.
Built between 1762 and 1790, the house belonged to Gabriel Walker, who received the land as payment for his service during the American Revolution.
The structure represents early American frontier architecture with hand-hewn timbers interlocked at joints and natural materials used for chinking between logs.
The historical building, managed by the Allegheny Land Trust since 2020, offers visits by appointment through the Pioneers West Historical Society.
The basement fireplaces served as cooking areas, connected to the first floor by a steep ship's ladder for food transportation.
