Historic Tour of Roseland Cottage, Woodstock, CT

My wife and I decided to go on one of the tours offered at the Pink House in Woodstock, CT more formerly known as Roseland Cottage. The tour lasted 3 hours and was filled with rich history of the house, property, and family that built and owned it through the generations - The Bowens.

I'd highly recommend this tour to anyone that loves historic tours! Over the 3 hours I took about 220 pictures from the attic to the basement, outside privy, and bowling alley!

Enjoy!

Excerpt from Historic New England site:
"Roseland Cottage depicts the summer life of a prosperous family in mid 19th-century America. Built in 1846 in the newly fashionable Gothic Revival style, the house provided a seasonal escape from a more formal city existence for Henry Chandler Bowen and his family. Bowen, a Woodstock native, made his fortune in New York and became an active abolitionist, Congregationalist, and Republican."
