What a fasinating find!!!! Of course it is really in decay with walls missing, vines & trees all over it, etc., and too dangerous to enter. But just awesome to look at. It was three stories with gingerbread, brick first floor, & must have been something out of "Gone with the Wind"!. It was also very sad to see such a grand "lady" lost forever. If anyone has a picture of the Rodwell house you can copy and fax to me or can direct me to a link or book that might have it, I would really appreciate it. I really want to see what "she" looked like in her time. (Sarah Rodwell m. Capt. Wm. Anthony Dowtin, my grt grt Uncle.) Sincerely, Carol
