The buried foundation of one of the colonial era buildings, that is frequently refered to as Building X. This foundation has an uncertain historical significance.
Constructed in 1932, this building originally served as the park maintenance facility before becoming a craft demonstration shop in the 1970s. The Shop is often used during special events to explain or demonstrate an early 20th century interpretation of colonial trades such as blacksmithing, coopering, cobbling, and wood shingle shaving.
This building served as the kitchen demonstration area, as well as an office when it was constructed in 1931. Since that time, the kitchen area has remained and the former office space has housed many different exhibits.
Cooking demonstrations are given in the kitchen during special events. The demonstrations highlight historic recipes and cooking techniques.
The Spinning and Weaving Shop is closed. From the windows, items for spinning and weaving can be seen.
