Pear Valley
Pear Valley is a one-room yeoman's cottage and prime example of vernacular architecture in Eastville, Virginia. The modest embellishments and its high level of preservation make it one of the most architecturally interesting examples of small, historic homes in Virginia. ==Architecture== The house is very typical of early Chesapeake architecture. The single-story dwelling is remarkably detailed and impeccably constructed. The owners were presumably slightly more well-off than their near neighbors, but still not wealthy enough to afford a larger, brick building.〔 Distinctive features of the building include a pyramidal chimney and glazed brickwork.〔 Although there used to be controversy surrounding the construction date, Dendrochronology and extensive study place the date between 1720 and 1750.
