Wilcomb Pinder House, 43 Summer St.
This timber-framed First Period house was built in 1718 by William Wilcomb at 43 Summer St. in Ipwich. The interior of the home features hand-hewn summer beams, wide plank flooring and the original fireplaces. The current owners added 800 square feet in 2005 with the saltbox conversion and the addition of gables. An Ipswich Historic Commission plaque identifies the house. The Wilcomb and Pinder families were among the early settlers in Ipswich. View a slide show of the reconstruction of this house at the DWBates site
