Long Ridge Historical District - East Starrs Plain Road at West Redding Road

11 p.

In 1814 a survey was done to lay out a highway which became East Starrs Plain. In 1819 Stephen Curtis sold land to Noah Wood. The style of the house on the property is a modified salt box but the front portion appears to be of the 1820's period, not earlier. In 1851 the town of Danbury laid out a road from Joseph P. Wood's house, inherited from his father Noah Wood, to Jarvis P. Hull's property on Starrs Plain Road, near the present day road to Lake Waubeeka. This would be part of the present day West Redding Road.
