George Perkins Marsh Boyhood Home, Woodstock
This Queen Anne house, built in 1805 and enlarged several times, is significant as the boyhood home of conservationist George Perkins Marsh (1801–82), and as the home later in the 19th century of Frederick H. Billings (1823–90), a businessman and philanthropist.
