Built on Spocott Farm around 1800, this colonial tenant house was used by the Radcliffe family and the people who worked for them. Its best known residents were Columbus and Adaline Wheatley, who lived here until her death in 1929. A free black woman, Adaline served as cook, nurse, nanny, and house manager at Spocott for more than 60 years, and people from community leaders to the Radcliffe children she helped raise sought her advice, counsel, and care. A typical middle-class dwelling of the 1800s, the 1.5-story house is made of white pine around an oak frame. It once stood elsewhere on the farm and was moved to this location in 1975.
