Built in 1797, this historic structure is a two-story, rectangular,
limestone building. It measures five bays by two bays, and thirty-two feet by forty-two feet. The raised
mansard roof was added circa 1870, replacing an earlier gable roof. The tavern operated into the 1850s, after which it was occupied as a private residence. It remained in the Lerch family from the time of its construction into the 1950s. ==References==
