The 1795 Harris - Black House Brewster, MA 

To our knowledge, of the many small early houses believed to have existed throughout Cape Cod, only one has survived. Located on Red Top Road in Brewster, MA, this dwelling was occupied from 1795 to 1904 by the Harris Black family. It was subsequently used as a storeroom for cranberries and a small forge for the repair of farm implements. The one story frame structure measuring fifteen feet to the rooftop and sixteen feet square comprised of a single room, a tiny pantry, and a sleeping loft overhead. The entire family lived and worked in this space. The Harris - Black House was rebuilt on Brewster Historical Society property donated by Bette and Tony McGowan, next to the Drummer Boy Park in Brewster, MA. It now faces south just as it did on Red Top Road.
