Title:
The Lancaster Hotel
Description:
Built in 1786, the Lancaster House (also known as Lancaster Hotel or Lancaster Inn) was located on the east side of Main Street just north of the First Church. The handsome building was four stories high, surmounted by an observatory, and had piazzas on three sides and a front balcony. After providing food and lodging in a relaxed country setting for more than 100 years, the place burned down on July 18, 1906. This view shows the building from the south.
