This sturdy stone structure was built around 1790. It is said to have been built to withstand an Indian attack, or may have replaced an older building from the era of the French and Indian War, which ended in 1763.
This house is no longer occupied. It can be seen from Senedo Road, Route 42.
See Thomas Hudson House on Shenandoah Stories.

...this treasure has stood the test of time! Thanks Linda for joining the party, take care.
ReplyDeleteThe stone building looks strong. Hope it will be occupied again.
ReplyDeleteA good stone walled house, and I hope it's kept up in repair so many more generations can see it.

ReplyDeleteA piece of history ... I hope it is kept up with that in mind. (Of course I’m from a part of the country where we wouldn’t see anything like that, so I’m always a bit awestruck.)
ReplyDeleteLooks formidable. Should be protected as historic.
ReplyDeleteIt looks well built.
ReplyDeleteI love these old, stone houses. This is a great one.
ReplyDeleteIt was built to last for sure - love old buildings
