12. Brief Description: One-story, five-bay, brick veneered gable and wing cottage with Minimalist Traditional influence, built ca. 1850 and altered in ca. 1950. Cross gable roofs covered with asphalt shingles, with box cornice. Windows are 1/1 and 2/2 double-hung sashes, some in pairs, some enclosed. Partial-width, undercut porch supported by box piers. Entrance contains a three-light, three-panel Craftsman door.

30. Historical Information: Acceding to local history, a portion of this house, or its site, is associated with a local Quaker cabinetmaker, one Mr. Howell, who lived here prior to the Civil War. This assertion may be confirmed to a degree by Sanborn maps, which show this residence standing in 1916. Earlier Sanborn maps did not include this area of Oxford.
