The home faces providing separation from the road (photos 1-4). To the southwest of the Gooding House is a remaining brick includes approximately one acre, land that has been set off from more recent developments to the west and north.

To the north of the Gooding House and set back further from the road is a contemporary one-story brick attached for reference.) The larger rural setting has been diminished by land subdivision and development in with an attached two-story brick ell. The main house roof is a truncated hip, standing seam metal, with a widow's walk with wood railing at its center (photo 5). Prominent interior brick chimneys with corbelled caps and brick panels extend above the roofline at both the north and south end walls of the main house. A third chimney exists at the center of the rear wall, adjacent to the attached ell. The house rests on a limestone where a concrete well with steps to a basement door is located The brick bond patterns of the Gooding House provide evidence that the earliest portion of the building is the first story of the main house, where Flemish Bond bricklis located.

The Flemish bond pattern stops two courses above the top of the window heads on the first floor of the main façade. Above this level, the brick is laid in a common bond pattern with five rows of stretcher bricks between the header courses. The north and south elevations also have common bond pattern brick, but again a difference exists between the first and second floors: the first floor has three rows of stretcher brick between header courses, while the second floor has five. A clear line is visible above the first floor on the front and two sides of the main house, giving further evidence that the second floor was constructed at a later time. central entry on the first floor. The north and south elevations have two evenly spaced window openings on first and second floors. In addition, the south elevation has a square-headed window that is a later addition.

The Italianate influence is seen in the projecting eaves with shaped wood brackets on the front elevation and two side elevations. The brackets rest on a raised row of brick headers and are located in sidelight (photo 7). The door itself dates from the early 20th century renovation, with an upper-half light with six panes and lower-half three-panel design (photo 18). suspended from the frieze and attached to the sides of each column. The railing has a cross-buck design centered between two horizontal rails. The porch rests on a limestone foundation that has been parged with possibly could have been originally located at the front door. (photos 8, 10). This south elevation contains two doors and two windows on the first floor, and two windows on the second floor. Windows are six-over-six sash on this elevation. The second floor windows are tucked beneath the eaves.

On the first floor, the windows and the eastern door have segmental brick arches. The doors have limestone sills and the window sills are sandstone, as elsewhere in the building. The rear elevation of the ell, facing west, is the location of the back stair and no window openings are present. The north side of the ell has two windows on the second floor, as on the south side, and two doors and two windows on the first floor (photos 13-15). Windows on this elevation are two-over-two double-hung sash. small and located at the kitchen sink on the interior, apparently added when the kitchen was remodeled sides, providing protection from the elements. A door opening exists on the west side and a six-light window exists on the north side.

The visible rear elevation of the main house contains three window openings on the second floor and two large wood lintel (deteriorating) that is parged in concrete. To its south is a door providing entry to the same room; alterations to the brick make it appear to have been a larger opening at one time. Located on this side of the ell is a shed-roofed three-bay porch with concrete floor, chamfered posts, and small casement windows. One of the first floor windows is a large opening created for the dining room, which has a house (photo 6).

The porch features a central pediment and wide frieze, with brackets at the location of the four A three-bay one-story porch that appears to date from the early 1900s encompasses the center three bays of the brackets.The western bay is partially enclosed with two different types of clapboards on its west and north second floor windows are two-over-two double hung sash, while the first floor windows are multi-paned windows and a door on the first floor (photo 14).Windows here are square headed with sandstone sills. The First floor windows and doors here are square-headed, rather than segmental arched.

One of the windows is in its style, with the door framing surmounted by brackets, narrow sidelights to either side with four panes of glass and a panel below, and a transom with two panes of glass above the door and a single pane above each pairs between window openings.The facade contains five bays with a central entrance.The entry is Italianate supporting square posts.The porch is given an airy feeling by the appearance of trellis-like wood trim that is The gabled ell is flush with the south side of the main house, with no break visible in the brick at the first story NPS Form 10-900 OMB No. 1024-0018 concrete; the porch floor is poured concrete.

The first floor finishes date primarily from the 1917 renovation, when the house was embellished with Neo-Colonial and Craftsman details (photos 21-29). Design details include French doors, multi-light casement windows, decorative window and door surrounds with egg and dart molding, cornice cabinets, and bookcases.

This treatment is identical on the interior of the south parlor as well (photo 21). Other features of this room include three casement windows with classical enframements (photo 22) that match those in other rooms of the first floor.

Doors in this room have a classical entablature that is similar to the window treatment. The door leading to the rear dining room is wide, with a pair of 18-pane French doors (photo 25). in this room is the lowered and vaulted transverse ceiling, which extends from the stair on the east to the fireplace mantle on the west (photos 26, 27, 29). This treatment is used to mask the underside of the stair, features that include fluted pilasters, entablature moldings, and vertical panels in the upper mantle and on both plaster walls. On the west wall of this room is a large paired casement window with built-in seating to the north sides.

Other walls of this room have tall wainscoting with panels again created by laying moldings on the moldings and coffered ceilings, a remaining dining room fireplace mantle, wainscoting, and built-in seating, shaped newel post (photos 19, 20). The balusters are placed two to a riser. At the second floor, the stair in many places.

Their heirs held the property until 2001 when it was sold, ending 175 years of continuous Gooding family ownership. Columbus-Sandusky Turnpike History The settlement of the Gooding property and the construction of the Gooding Tavern were, of course, influenced by the development of the north-south road that was to become the Columbus-Sandusky Turnpike (later U.S. Representatives introduced a petition to revise and correct the state road leading from Columbus and Worthington to Delaware, Norton and further north.

Kilbourne believed that the Sandusky Bay was the perfect place for a harbor to open up the Ohio marketplace to New England. He fought relentlessly to establish roads from the capital to Sandusky. He laid out a southern extension of the road to tie Portsmouth on the Ohio River to the central and northern parts of the state. As a result of Kilbourne's efforts, the State of Ohio chartered the Columbus and Sandusky Turnpike Company on January 31,1826, the same year that George Gooding was appointed as a surveyor and engineer for the road. The following year the federal government gave 31,840 acres in trust to the state of Ohio for the turnpike company to finance road improvements and development. An 1820 map of Ohio shows the turnpike leading from Columbus to Worthington, through Delaware into Marion County. The southern portion of the improved road was built and in use by 1828.

The Columbus- Sandusky Turnpike, also sometimes known as Kilbourne Highway, was completed to Sandusky in 1834. highway. (The New Eden, p. 197) Reports verify that stage lines from Columbus to Sandusky were in operation along this route in 1822 and 1826- 1930 despite the poor condition of the road. Tolls were collected every 10 miles at a rate of 18 cents per mile for 4-wheel carriages pulled by horses or oxen. (George B. Gooding, Pabst) A tollgate was situated near the Samuel Wesley Williams of Cincinnati described the experience as traveling on a 'bed of mire.' It took him a NPS Gooding Farm.

In that Columbus and Sandusky Turnpike Company was disbanded February 28, 1843 when the Ohio legislature value to increase from$1,800 to$4,300(this date corresponds with the date of 1917 that is carved in the wood repealed the act that incorporated it. Two years later an act was passed that established the road as a public Route 23).

The road was laid out about 1820. Within four years it was noted as having frequent use, although (Rev. 10-90) United States Department of the Interior National Park Service NATIONAL REGISTER OF HISTORIC PLACES CONTINUATION SHEET Section number 8 Page 4 Gooding House and Tavern, Delaware County, Ohio journal." (Columbus Dispatch) Forrest Main Lawrence, a Delaware County resident, wrote in 1962: "Although the settlements [of Delaware and Worthington] were only fourteen miles apart, the mud and corduroy roads were so bad most of the year that stage-coach drivers were glad to pull into the barn then standing near the house, and rest their tired horses or exchange them for a fresh two- or four-horse team while the passengers and themselves received shelter and refreshment in the nearby tavern. This was known both as the Gooding Tavern and the Halfway House.

This stately home amid old trees still belongs to the family, the present [1962] owners being Mr. and Mrs. Bennett Tavern History in Ohio While there was always disdain from the Puritans, and other like-minded individuals, who believed that alcohol was a curse and disruptive to the community, the tavern establishment flourished and made its way from New England into the western frontiers. It was often the case that a tavern was one of the first established businesses after the grist and saw mills. Many frontier villages grew from a crossroads cluster of buildings, which invariably included a tavern. As a village grew into a larger town, additional taverns were established to as well as a welcome place of refreshment and overnight accommodation. A 1937 publication, Early Ohio Taverns, identified nearly 500 taverns in early Ohio.

(Yoder) Taverns were essential components of a village's growth and could be found in all areas of the young state. Taverns were important social institutions and offered more than respite from the hard work of settling a new land. Often they were the only public location between settlements or the first public space in a young town that could accommodate a large gathering. In the very early days of settlement in the Ohio frontier, taverns often served as community meeting houses. Business meetings, political party activities, Indian trading, treaty were early places of theatre productions and dances along with the more typical gambling and billiards. They played a significant role in accommodating stagecoach travel in the early 1800s, providing a place to change teams of horses and to provide rest and sustenance for the travelers.

in order for a taverner to sell alcohol they must be able to provide food and shelter for travelers. This kept taverns from simply being places of consumption and lent them a certain amount of respectability. During this period of history, the term inn and tavern were interchangeable. Tavern keeping didn't require any experience or much capital, therefore it was an easy business to start. accommodate travelers coming to conduct business.

In the rural areas, especially in strategic locations between villages, it was provided a ready market for their agricultural goods as well as additional income. the railroad did not penetrate and where the freight wagon and stagecoach continued to meet transportation needs." (Yoder, p. 177) Other contributing factors to the decline of the tavern were improved roads, which states shifted away from the requirement that a tavern must be able to entertain and accommodate guests.

This allowed a tavern to operate strictly as a bar and lessened the need for an inn. between Worthington and Delaware. Given the difficulties of stagecoach and wagon travel over the Columbus ...many a weary traveler has refreshed the inner man with toothsome edibles furnished by the hand of the house, it is said that Mrs. Gooding "made 40 pies at a time and would place them in the ice house, which still sits behind the house, to cool.

It is also reported that General William Henry Harrison stayed at the Gooding Tavern on his way to his inaugural in 1841. Documentation of the use of the Gooding House as a tavern from at least 1835 to 1856 is found in local county period.

The 1880 History of Delaware County and Ohio (Perrin and Battle) indicates that George Gooding was operating a tavern and hotel at his property before 1835. In the biographical sketch for Anson Williams stage changed horses, and which continued to do the bulk of the tavern business. This hotel was built of brick (page 711), refers to this house as being the place "where the elder Gooding kept a tavern in the days of staging, who were also to affirm that a tavern was needed for the accommodation of travelers at the place indicated on which was one of the principal stopping places along the route." in 1827, by Mr. George Gooding."

Small-scale rural taverns often had common floor plan features. "Most featured a large public room with a tap room at one end with a dining room to the rear. The kitchen and pantry were often in an extension or ell. The guests and the owner slept in the second floor bedrooms, and the hired help stayed in the attic." (Leugers) In the Gooding Tavern, a large room could have been positioned at the back of the main house or along the south side, where wood stud walls (not brick bearing) are located. Certainly, when George Gooding made his modifications to the house in 1854, it was still being used as a tavern.
