The Adolphus H. Woodbridge House

608 Seacliff Drive, Kingsville Ontario N9Y 2E6

Description

The Adolphus H. Woodbridge House is a 2-storey house constructed in 1881 in the Gothic Revival style.  The building’s historical value lies in its association with Adolphus H. Woodbridge, a shoemaker by trade and renowned practical joker.  Woodbridge was Reeve of Gosfield South Township and a member of Essex County Council.  He was active in community groups including the Oddfellows and the Methodist Church and was the inspector for the area poor house, the House of Refuge in Leamington.  With his wife Amelia, Woodbridge had 10 children and farmed 45 acres of land on which the house was located.

Key heritage attributes include:
Cut fieldstone foundation
Ornate brickwork
Steeply-pitched gable dormers
Main exterior door and wood vergeboards
Hardwood flooring
Interior woodwork including spindled fretwork over archways
