Red Brick Tavern (not open}, 1.4 m. (L), is a two-and-one-half-story red brick building with white trim, and a gable roof (about 1805). The well spaced windows in this house are topped with corniced lintels that appear quite heavy. A feature of the house is the arched central doorway, with a white paneled door flanked by two narrow side-lights topped with an elliptical fan-light. The portal is surmounted by a hanging lantern. In the 19th century this was an important tavern.

Second stop on Tour 4. The Tavern is now a multi-family residence. It retain almost all of the features as described above. It is in very good shape and sits well above RT 146A, which was 146 in 1937.
