The Charles Rose House (No 1): Constructed by Charles Rose, A Loyalist who settled in the region in 1789. Construction dating 1810, it is an excellent example of the typical residential structure of Bath. Termed the "Ontario Cottage", typified by small size, 1 1/2 storey elevation and with a classically symmetrical facade, an entrance in the centre and a single window on either side. Now stuccoed, but originally clapboard, the doorway was surrounded by transom light with no porch. Hawley House (No 2): South of Main Street to the east. Constructed around 1784 by Jeptha Hawley. The oldest structure in Bath where Rev. J. Stewart held the town's first church service in 1785, and in 1787 the eccentric Rev. John Langhorne, the first permanent minister, moved into the stone addition. The house was another example of the "Ontario Cottage" when first built. Continuing east along Main Street, one passes the Van Luven House (No 3), another "Ontario Cottage".
