Built in 1801 by George Read Jr., son of George Read, signer of the Declaration of Independence. The lot across the street was purposefully left vacant by Read so that he may keep an open view of the Delaware River. Not to be confused with Stonum, the home of his father, which is located in a different portion of town.
