Peter Wolf House, York, Pennsylvania (39.929107, -76.821028)

Stone House Felling Dates: Spring 1785, Winter 1784/5, Spring 1784

Site Master 1646-1784 (white pine) WLPAx1 (t = 8.17 MD2011; 7.12 DC-AREA2; 7.11 ALLENS).

The Peter Wolf House is a five-bay, two-story stone house with a number of attached additions to the north. Dendrochronological analysis has shown that the two-story stone building was constructed from timbers felled in the spring of 1784, the winter of 1784/5, and the spring of 1785, suggesting that it was built at this latter date or shortly thereafter.
