Pfarr Log House
The Pfarr Log House is a log cabin located near the village of Milford in rural Clermont County, Ohio, United States. Built in the early nineteenth century, it provides a pivotal representation of the area's earliest built environment, and it has been named a historic site.
Although primarily a log building, the house rests on a stone foundation; the roof is metal,〔(Pfarr Log House ), Ohio Historical Society, 2007. Accessed 2014-02-09.〕 constructed with a very shallow pitch from the edge to the peaks of the gables. The structure is one and a half stories tall with walls built of square-cut timbers, rather than unhewn logs. The joints between the timbers feature an early construction method known as "steeple notching", which was only employed in buildings constructed before 1825.〔Owen, Lorrie K., ed. ''Dictionary of Ohio Historic Places''. Vol. 1. St. Clair Shores: Somerset, 1999, 143.〕
Comparatively little is known of the house's early history before the terminus ante quem of construction, 1825; a precise date of construction has not been established, and the builder's name is similarly unknown. Beginning in 1843, it was owned by successive generations of the Pfarr family, who sold it to a James Wiederhold in the 1960s. Soon before 1910, a newer farmhouse was built next to the cabin, and as the Pfarrs wished to expand the farmhouse, the cabin was moved in 1910 to make room.〔
In September 1977, the Pfarr Log House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places; despite having been moved in 1910, it qualified because of its historically significant architecture.〔
