Wells Rock House

Logan County

The 1910 house is a good local example of an early 20th century masonry building constructed with native stone.  The house is one of the few remaining known examples of stone construction in Logan County.

A view of the house with stone walls and low gable with two chimneys in the center. On either side are trees with a field of yellow grass before it.

Native stone from the surrounding area was used to build the house and stone barn; the barn is no longer standing, leaving only the house to convey the early history of this homestead.  Houses constructed of stone from the homesteading period are somewhat rare in the county, making the Wells Rock House an important local resource.
