Across Main Street is the Three Village Inn. The "Old Homestead", as it was previously known, was built in 1751 by the farmer Richard Hallock. The integrity of his work is evidenced by the original pre-Revolutionary fireplace and the beams in the main building, all are original with pegged mortise-and-tenon joints. In 1835, Jonas Smith, one of the country’s most prominent ship owners, purchased Hallock Homestead for use as a summer house. After his death in 1867 the house had a series of owners until 1929 when Mrs. Frank Melville purchased and renovated it for use as a Women’s Exchange.
