Lichgate on High Road, Tudor cottage in Tallahassee, United States.
The single-story Tudor-style residence features a steep roof, tall chimney with pot, white pine floors, and cypress wood paneling from local swamps.
Laura Jepsen, a Florida State University literature professor, built this cottage in 1956 after discovering an ancient live oak tree in a pasture.
The property includes a Shakespeare garden, meditation labyrinth, and architectural elements that connect to English medieval church traditions.
Visitors can locate the entrance on High Road by finding a white post with Lichgate engraving near the intersection with Tharpe Street.
The foundation contains granite from Georgia quarries while the floor boards originate from a dismantled 1762 ship.
