The house and outbuildings were once a stop on the underground railroad.
A fine example of colonial craftsmanship, the Roger Butler House shows off wide plank floors, clapboarding, and three fireplaces sharing a common chimney, one of which has a bake/beehive oven. The original colonial structure has been modified by 19th and 20th century elements.
The Roger Butler House is currently a private dwelling.
