This shingle-style house, known as "Anglecot," was featured in
many architectural publications at the time of  its construction,
heralded as innovative in both form, plan and mix of  materials. 
However, by the time John Naylor photographed the house, taste
had shifted to a more academically correct interpretation of classical
and colonial forms.  Additions and alterations were made in 1897,
1898, 1901 (Wilson Eyre, Jr., architect), 1902, 1903 (Charles Cridland,
architect), 1906 (John Owens, designer), 1910 (Wilson Eyre, Jr., architect),
1941, 1956 (Paul A. Brosz, architect), 1957 (Paul A. Brosz, architect),
and 1981-1983 (Greg Woodring, architect).   “Anglecot” was a nursing
home in the 1970s.  Now it is divided into condominiums.
