| Address | 376 Boston Rd |
| MACRIS ID | BIL.160 |
| Built | 1700 |
John Baldwin's house lot was northernmost "on the Township" and his 1657 house was essentially on this site. However, the chamfered interior sheathing in one room suggests the current house was likely built around 1700 by John Baldwin's son, John Jr.
In 1841, substantial changes were made to the house to "modernize" it: removal of the central chimney, moving the front door to end facing the street, and installation of a recessed doorway.
Cyril D. Locke, principal of the Howe High School, occupied the house from 1930 to 1960.
