Acadian House, Historic saltbox house in Guilford, US
The Acadian House features a traditional timber frame construction with a long sloping roof and a large central T-shaped stone chimney.
Joseph Clay constructed the core section of this residence in 1670, making it one of Connecticut's earliest surviving colonial buildings.
The building received its name after housing Acadian refugees who arrived from Nova Scotia following their deportation in 1755.
Located at 37 Union Street, the house exhibits three bays with a central entrance framed by simple molding and a four-light transom window.
The main facade stands at an angle to the street, with asymmetrical windows flanking the entrance and the rear roof extending to the first floor.
