Description

Exterior of the Raleigh Tavern, north facade, viewed from behind the tavern to the northwest, 1935. A fenceline stands in the foreground, and the tavern's rear entrance is featured in the background.

The Raleigh Tavern was the frequent scene of both jollity and consequence. Burned to the ground in 1859, the tavern was reconstructed from published illustrations, insurance policies, and archaeology that uncovered most of the original foundations.
