Gabled-Ell Cottage, Tattnall County

Front elevation

This board-and-batten gabled-ell cottage was a landmark in my travels to Red Earth Farm for many years. It’s now a heap of boards, finished off by Hurricane Helene.

Interior view, looking to the rear wing (ell).

It was likely a tenant home, perhaps connected to the nearby John Pearson House and related to the naval stores industry.

It was a humble house but must have been loved in its time. I know I will miss seeing it.
