Nathaniel Bishop House (1755)

In 1720, Nathaniel Bishop, a Guilford farmer and sea captain, purchased land and around 1755 began building a house, which was still uncompleted at the time of his death in 1769. His grandsons inherited the house and the materials to finish building it. In later years the house was used as offices. In 1975, it was moved from behind the Guilford Savings Bank to its current address at 147 Boston Street.
