RE: Extra Credit Questions
Naturally, available funds will determine how much restoration will be done and how quickly. However, the 1700s have great history to be told at Rich Hill, even though the house is better known for its ties to the escape of Booth. The full history of the land and dwelling is being carefully documented, and exhibits will reflect the "life" of the site from the colonial era through the first half of the 20th century, I believe.
So much of the 1865 structure was demolished in the 1970s by its last owner that, if the decision is made to return it to that period, it will take eons to rebuild the parts that were taken off. Read this, if interested further: https://richhillfriends.org/preservation-matters/ |
