==Description and history==
The Patch House is set on the east side of College Avenue, at the northern end of the campus of the University of Maine, most of which is located in Orono. It is a 1-1/2 story wood frame Cape style house, three bays wide, with a side gable roof, clapboard siding. A two-story addition extends to the rear of the main block. The main facade is symmetrically arranged, with a gable-roofed entrance bay flanked by sash windows. The entrance is flanked by sidelight windows and is topped by a molded hood; there is a sash window in the gable above.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=NRHP nomination for Edith Marion Patch House )
The house was built about 1837 and expanded twice, the last time about 1900. Edith Marion Patch purchased the house, which sat on a parcel of land more than in size, in 1913. She sold off the land across College Avenue, and lived in this house with her sister Alice. Edith died in 1954, several years after Alice. Patch, a graduate of the University of Minnesota, was hired by the university to work at its agricultural experimental station. She eventually came to head that station, and spent her entire professional career at the university. She published a number of articles in leading journals, and did groundbreaking research on aphids, which were a major crop pest. She retired from the university in 1937, but continued to be active in professional circles.〔
