| Additional Information: | A 'site file' exists for this property. It contains additional information such as correspondence, newspaper clippings, or historical information. It is a public record and may be viewed in person at the Wisconsin Historical Society, Division of Historic Preservation-Public History. This one-story building sits on a rubble stone foundation that encloses a crawlspace. The windows are the original two-over-two double hung sash windows. The paired main entrance doors are fashioned out of vertical boards and by be original to the building. The only change to the exterior appears to have been the replacement of the original windows in the gable end above the entrance with a modern single light pair. UPDATE 2019: old town hall has new siding, windows and a new front door. |
