The Utah Historical Marker mounted on the west end of the house reads:

Joseph Tattersall House

The house was built c. 1877 for Joseph Tattersall, an early settler of Beaver City. It is a one-and-a-half-story tall building constructed of black rock--a hard, dense volcanic stone that is commonly found in the nearby foothills in small outcroppings; it was a fairly common historic building material used in Beaver. The house features a steeply pitched roof, end-wall chimneys, two dormer windows, center gable with a door, and two bay windows that are located on the main façade. The home is the work of Thomas Frazer, a Scottish pioneer stonemason who did a lot of building in southern Utah, particularly in Beaver.
