At first glance, nothing really stands out about it except you can guess it’s very old.
A three-story structure made of dry laid stone sitting on a Scott County farm has no historic plaque describing its unique place in American history. The large double doors and four windows in the front are boarded up. The building’s roof has collapsed. The only sign of preservation is a large metal roof supported by wood beams that sits above the building shielding it from rain and snow.
But talk to the owner of this land just a few miles outside the fast-growing city of Georgetown, and you soon learn something very special happened here almost 200-years ago. At that time, Kentucky was considered the West of an expanding country which was grappling with how to deal with Native American tribes.
