This main part was originally built as a jail in 1797, the front known as the 'old jail' was built in 1819 and the back stone building known as the 'new jail' was built in 1874. The front jail was then turned into the jailers residence. Both the house and jail were used up until 1987. The building is now a B & B and is unique place for visitors to stay, and one room with original prison bunks and resembling a cell as been kept.
