Denison House, Colonial house in Forty Fort, Pennsylvania.
The two-and-a-half-story frame building includes a central chimney design and features a full-width front porch added during the mid-19th century expansion.
Colonel Nathan Denison, a Revolutionary War officer and Luzerne County Judge, constructed this residence around 1790 following New England architectural principles.
The historic residence contains the table where the Articles of Capitulation were signed, marking the British victory at the Battle of Wyoming.
The Luzerne County Historical Society maintains the property at 35 Denison Street, offering guided tours throughout summer months for visitors.
The residence occupies 6 acres of land and maintains its 1790s appearance through careful restoration work completed by historical preservation specialists.
