History and description

[edit]

In 1895, J. P. Glanville moved his blacksmith shop to this location. In 1901, Frank J. Glanville was the blacksmith in a new building. The two and one-half story brick building features vernacular Colonial Revival style and a semi-octagonal front bay. In 1905, Henry W. Armstrong was operating a new livery stable next to the blacksmith shop.[3]
