Scenic Old House series: The Murrell House at Craycraft, KY See next earlier House in series: House on Haskinsville RD>House on Haskinsville RD By Richard Robertson The old, majestic Walter Murrell House is in the old Craycraft community of Adair County, about one mile north of 80E and just NE of the New Concord road intersection. It lies on the east side of the road. I took this photo, along with other images of old houses, in the Fall and Winter of 2007, after my relocation from the Front Range of Colorado. The Front Range has been a progressive community with historic resurgent growth spurts. Structures don't last long there. I worked construction there in the 1970's. Some of the structures I had helped with then have since been replaced with a more modern structure. This includes houses! These progressive practices have left the Front Range devoid of character. I have known for a while that our area here is replete with character, and that knowledge has now been reinforced, being privileged to be a resident. I would like to thank Mike Ratliff for starting this series. Anita Bryant Robertson's Grandmother resided in the old Craycraft home in the 1960's I was told. This house is still very impressive and in such good shape that it is more likely a candidate for restoration rather than destruction. From Lower Bull Run, s/Richard Robertson This story was posted on 2010-03-05 18:31:01
