On Main Street is the Deacon William Hale House (32 Main Street, UPT #34). Built ca. 1831, it is one of only a few local dwellings with a hipped roof, but has the same orientation of long side with center entry parallel to the road. The five-bay, two-story house is one room deep on the south side, and two rooms deep on the five bay north side, where there is a side entry. The main façade retains the typical entry with louvered fan, three-quarter sidelights, and flanking pilasters carrying a deep projecting cornice; the other side faces north and has a screened porch covering part of the elevation. Windows that likely had 6/6 sash now have 2/1 sash set in narrow casings. The house has two interior chimneys, clapboard siding, and narrow corner boards.
