JAMES HOUSE HAMPTON NEW HAMPSHIRE
james house
Another hot and humid day is predicted for today. I drove by North Beach yesterday and you would think it was Labor Day weekend with the amount of traffic and people. Doesn't any one work anymore?
Anyway if you drive out Towle Farm road You will find the "James House" a restoration work in progress.
The James House is recognized as a true "first period" colonial. The house built for Benjamin James in 1723, near the salt meadows of Hampton, New Hampshire, is regarded as perhaps the earliest surviving example of the two-room deep, center-chimney colonial in New Hampshire. All of its original framing remains intact.
Added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2002, the James House presents an important opportunity to preserve the architectural and historic value of a rare first period house.
Have a great day exploring our area!
