Eakin-Zacheus House, 103 South Congress Street, Port Penn, New Castle County, DE
Summary
Significance: The Eakin-Zacheus House, located in Port Penn in St. Georges Hundred, is a well-preserved example of a sawn plank house with a braced frame addition. It was built at the end of the eighteenth century as a village dwelling which simultaneously served as a store and tavern. The simply finished interiors and use of rough construction distinguish this structure as a fine example of lower-grade vernacular building traditions.
