MARCUS HOOK PLANK LOG CABIN

MARCUS HOOK, PA

The Marcus Hook Plank Log Cabin is a historic structure located in Marcus Hook, Pennsylvania. Built in the early 19th century, the cabin serves as a testament to the pioneers and settlers who once inhabited the area. The cabin is made entirely of logs that are hand-hewn and notched together, with the original chinking still intact. The logs range from 12 to 20 inches in diameter and are held together by wooden pegs. The roof of the cabin is made of wooden shingles and has a steep pitch. The cabin measures approximately 18 by 20 feet, with two stories and a porch that extends along the front of the building.

The interior of the cabin has been restored to its original state, with a large fireplace on the first floor and a loft above. The walls and ceilings are made of rough-hewn logs, and the floors are of wide, rough-cut planks. The cabin is furnished with period pieces, including a spinning wheel, a loom, and a collection of antique tools.

The Marcus Hook Plank Log Cabin is open for public tours and serves as a reminder of the region's rich history. It is a popular destination for school groups, historical societies, and anyone interested in the pioneer lifestyle of early America.
