Heading up Brock Rd. to just south of the railway tracks and Taunton Rd. you will come to this burned out granite century home owned by the Knox family in 1878. Someone ripped open the side boards and lit a nice fire, as the one side is all charred.

Inside there are modern photos of a black family. I wonder if they were the last residents of this farm. Quite a dark, spooky place.

This is the one I thought you meant. I was here 2 or 3 months ago - it was so cold I almost broke my axle driving over the frozen mud ruts driving into the driveway! I wasn't satisfied with my pics though. :P
