Barnett Bobb Log House – Colonial Complex

Unlike many buildings in Lancaster and York counties influenced by Pennsylvania German architecture, the Barnett Bobb house is an English-style, squared-timber log home. Constructed in 1812, its distinctly English features include a symmetrical exterior façade, a central hall and corner fireplaces. Featured in a museum complex that includes two other historic houses, the Golden Plough Tavern and the Gates House, the Barnett Bobb house showcases family life in the 1830s.
