here's how the palatine settlement society found the tavern
these two images above taken sometime prior to the 1980s
after clearing the area around the building
here's what the building looked like prior to the restoration
above is an image of the tavern now
these interior images were taken before and during the restoration
I love this sort of thing. I love old buildings and their history. I love seeing what time and neglect can do to them (frankly) and then it's so uplifting when people value and care enough about these beautiful old places to learn about them and renovate them. So, this place is in New York. You can visit the Palatine Settlement Society for more information and images.

amazing! that's only 2 hours & 45 min away from me.
I love this sort of thing, too! When you get off the beaten track & into southeastern Ohio, there are a few early 19th century, Federal period taverns & inns like this tucked away in forgotten towns. I've made many a pilgrimage.
breathtaking
