A rare example of 17th-century architecture in New Jersey, this post-medieval English-style house was built circa 1690. A medicine room reflects the profession of Dr. William Robinson, one of the few physicians in East New Jersey at this time. He practiced Physick, a popular form of healing using plants and herbs, and also performed Chirurgery (surgery).

Unusual architectural features abound here, including wide floorboards and a 20-inch-wide summer beam. The hall, with its large fireplace, is complete with period furnishings. A box-like winder staircase leads to the second floor, where Dr. Robinson’s maps and
last will are displayed.
