ARCHITECTURAL DESCRIPTION:
Describe architectural features. Evaluate the characteristics of this building in terms of other buildings within the community.
117 Lake Elizabeth Drive (BRN-2235) is a one-and-one-half-story wood-frame Cottage. The building adopts a rectangular plan
on a concrete block foundation. The five-by-two bay building faces west along the Pleasant Avenue footpath that parallels Lake
Elizabeth Drive to the east and Summerbell Avenue to the west. The terrain slopes to the east toward Lake Elizabeth. The
building terminates in a front gable roof sheathed with asphalt shingles. Two gable roof wall dormers are featured on the north
elevation. Each dormer features a single 6/6 double-hung wood sash window set within a simple wood surround. The residence
is clad with wood shingles. A wrap-around hipped roof porch is featured on the north and west elevations. A portion of the
porch along the north elevation is infilled. The porch features chamfered wood posts resting on a wood deck. 117 Lake
Elizabeth Drive is a modest late-nineteenth century wood frame residence.
HISTORICAL NARRATIVE
Discuss the history of the building. Explain its associations with local (or state) history. Include uses of the building, and the
role(s) the owners/occupants played within the community.
In 1871 The New England Convention of the Christian Church purchased and established a camp meeting known as Camp
Christian on the 160 acre Perry Farm in Centerville. In 1872 the Christian Camp Meeting Association (CMMA) was established
with the purpose: “to hold and encourage others to hold religious services.” Camp Christian was rena med Craigville in 1881 in
honor of the life and ministry of Dr. J. Austin Craig, a prominent leader of the Christian Church (Christian Camp Meeting
Association Brochure).
Situated on a bluff overlooking Nantucket Sound, with the Centerville River to the west and Lake Elizabeth and Red Lilly Pond
on the east, it served as a spectacular spot for a retreat from everyday life. Families were able to buy or lease the 288 small lots,
with clergy getting theirs free. They initially erected tents or built small shelters, and as time and means allowed, small cottages
were constructed.
Today, the area is densely developed, with many cottages occupied year round. Craigville attracts a variety of visitors, both
religious and secular, to its Conference Center throughout the year, one being the Cape Cod Writers’ Center Annual Workshop.
The conference Center is owned by the Christina Camp Meeting Association and managed by the Massachusetts Conference of
the United Church of Christ.
117 Lake Elizabeth Drive (BRN-2235) was constructed between 1899-1909 by George W. Hoar (B. 1861), a merchant, and his
wife, Eva (B. 1864). The Hoars, who resided in Fall River, purchased two parcels of land, the first in 1885 from George and
Sarah Chase and the second, from Caleb and Sarah Tillinghast in 1899. The Hoar’s sold the property in 1909 to Edith A.
Biddulph (B. 1875) and her husband, Clarence (B. 1876). Clarence was a paper and cardboard salesman. The Biddulph’s son,
C. Ashmead (B. 1908) eventually sold the property in 1954 to William A. Plunkett. The Plunkett family continues to own the
property in 2009.
