What is Stone Manor?

Stone Manor is a house in the Italianate style, one of the most popular looks for American homes in the mid-1800s. The style is known for wide eaves supported by decorative brackets, tall narrow windows and a generally square, solid shape inspired by Italian country villas.

Its listing on the National Register of Historic Places recognizes the house as an important piece of the area's architectural history. The listing covers the house itself, making it one of several National Register homes within a short drive of Lockport.
