Title
J.Q.A. Stephens House (Boone County, Ky.)
Description
Historic Status: Burned 2007
Floor Plan: Dogtrot
One of Boone County’s few surviving early 19th Century dogtrot log houses, the Ryle House is built to two stories. The central bay, with Greek Revival doorway, appears to have been enclosed soon after the house was completed. A stone chimney anchors the west gable end; at the east end is a brick chimney, likely a replacement. The rear ell, built some years later, has been expanded several times.
The house is one of several local properties associated with the Ryle family, who were among the area’s earliest settlers.
