Bob Wells House. Intact 1-story tri-gable house with plain weatherboard, original 2-over-2 sash windows, a Queen Arme-style front door, a rear ell, and a hipped porch with turned posts. Bob Wells bought the lot from William Gaston Vickers, built the house, and sold it back to Vickers around 1909. Vickers's son Claude Vickers lived here for a few years. J. Lattis Baker, tobacco worker, was the owner- occupant from at least 1935 to the 1950s. [Brown, Durham A & H, 286; 1934-35 to 1950 CD]
