This was the home of Ebenezer Homan, my children's GGGGG grandfather. It was originally a watch tower for the St John Knights. If anyone has any other pictures or anything related to this home or Ebenezer Homan and his family I would love to be contacted here in New Zealand. Kiwimr2@gmail.com

It had quite extensive cellars where prior to the Homan's occupation in the late 1800's was used to manufacture whiskey which was smuggled out. I can only imagine the things what would have been found when it was demolished in the 1980s
