SAVED! CAREY COTTAGE
AT CREEK FARM
NH Preservation Alliance Award
Portsmouth Advocates Award
HISTORY
The property was nominated for the National Trust 2019 list of “11 Most Endangered Historic Places” based on the NH Division of Historical Resources assessment that Creek Farm is historic enough to qualify for listing in the National Register of Historic Places, because of its owner, architecture and historical connection to the Portsmouth Peace Treaty.

As of July they were working with a partner to preserve the Cottage but still pursuing the demolition permit. What's the background and what can you do?
