Brickett Place
The Brickett Place is a historic farmstead in rural Oxford County, Maine, United States. It is located in the White Mountain National Forest on Maine State Route 113, in the small town of Stow. Built 1812-16 by John Brickett out of handmade bricks, it is an idiosyncratic expression of Federal architecture in an unusually remote setting, and is the oldest building in the United States Forest Service's Eastern Region.〔National Register nomination for Brickett Place; available by request from the National Park Service〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=2010 Brickett Place Restoration Update )〕 It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.〔 It is currently used by the United States Forest Service as a seasonal visitors center, with interpretive displays about the area's history.
==Description==
Brickett Place is located in a small clearing east of Maine State Route 113 in northern Stow, Maine, at the southern approach to the Caribou/Speckled Mountain Wilderness. In addition to the main house, the clearing includes a small garage (built by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) in the 1930s), vestiges of stone walls, and a small parking area.〔
The main house is a 1-1/2 story brick structure with a gable roof, resting on a granite foundation. There are four chimneys rising from the interior near the side walls. The main facade faces south, and is five bays wide, with a center entrance topped by a three-light transom window. Wood-frame porches, an early 20th-century addition, line the north and west sides of the house, and a decorative hood of similar age shelters the secondary entrance.〔
The interior of the house follows a typical Federal-period center hall plan, although this has been partially interrupted by the addition of a bathroom. Some of the original trim survives inside, and is of late Federal styling.〔
