This old home occupies a cozy little corner here in Bell Buckle. It was built in 1897 on land bought from Sawney Webb himself. This Victorian home has seen a lot over the years, including a major fire in 1911 that damaged the second story. But despite the damage, the house was saved and renovated.
During the renovation, the outside of the house lost some of its Victorian looks. However, it still retains much of its original charm and character inside.
The house was used as a boarding house for Webb School in its early years, which certainly adds to its rich history. Despite its age and everything it’s been through, the house is still standing strong and is a testament to the craftsmanship of the builders who constructed it over a century ago.
