The Dennisville Inn |
Thomas Henderson built this charming
center hall house in the late 1700's,
and it served as a center for town
meetings, social gatherings and a
resting place for stagecoach travelers
from Philadelphia to Cape May. In the
middle of the 19th century, it belonged
to the Wells family. According to the
1860 census Jacob Wells was a hotel
keeper, and he lived in the building
with his wife Hannah, four children and
a servant, Mary Stokely. In the 20th
century, it served as a storage area for
used car parts. When it was donated to
the Village by Mr. & Mrs. Carl Gratz, a
rear addition was taken off. In order to
bring it to Historic Cold Spring
Village, the upper and lower floors were
separated and moved individually.
