Memory  
Other Information The name of our house is The Wishing Well Inn. It was and still is a prominent structure on Route 7 above the covered bridge. Unfortunately, the house has had a lot of owners. The previous owners severely altered the house by taking out all the pewter sconces, painting the hardwood floors jet black, the walls have been painted a dark (chalkboard) green; ceiling wood beams have been removed, every surface (walls, ceilings, floors) has been severely altered. The front door was moved, the house was lifted and/or moved. Several light outlets have been covered over. All the wood detailing has been painted over. Also one of the previous owners put aluminum siding on the house. Another owner ripped off the siding and abandoned the house. Thankfully, no one bothered with the windows (probably due to cost than anything else.) This is the 'house' where people would come to celebrate after their weddings, the CCC helped with the fall plantings, there were big parties and events held here. Unfortunately, we cannot seem to find a local who will share some intimate details about the history of our old house. Yet every contractor that we have ever contacted or had come in to do any work is familiar with the house (most of them visited or worked here growing up), but no one will talk about the house. In fact on any given day at any given time you can spot a local driving by and staring at the house. Former neighbors still keep tabs on the house. Some people have suggested that something bad must have happened since no one is willingly to talk about or are completely lying about knowing anything regarding the house, the interior has been painted in such dark colors and robbed of most of it's value and people still drive by and stare. Whatever it's history, our family loves this house and we are working on restoring/renovating it.

If anyone remembers this old house known as the The Wishing Well Inn or The West Cornwall Tea Room, we would love to hear from you at iknowthatoldhouse@earthlink.net
