Glimmerstone, Gothic Revival mansion in Cavendish, US
Located on Vermont Route 131, Glimmerstone features a cross-gable roof configuration and four distinct sections on its street-facing front elevation.
The mansion was constructed between 1844 and 1847 for Henry Fullerton, who managed the Black River Manufacturing and Canal Company mill in Cavendish.
The National Register of Historic Places recognized Glimmerstone in 1978 as an exemplary representation of Gothic Revival architecture in Vermont.
The stone structure incorporates locally quarried materials with mica flecks, demonstrating the resourceful use of regional building materials in 19th-century construction.
Scottish immigrant masons introduced a specialized construction method using stone facing on each side of rubble fill, strengthened by cross-laid stone slabs.
