NEW HOME FOR AN OLD HOUSE

ILLUSTRATION: Photos by DREW C. WILSON, Staff

The Pendleton House, above, was built in the late 1700s and is the

last unaltered 18th century home in Pasquotank County. Citizens

raised thousands of dollars to help move and preserve the house,

which now sits in a soybean field a quarter-mile from its original

site at Nixonton. Beverly Small, president of the Pendleton House

Association, left, sorts foundation bricks at the new site after the

house was moved.
