Vaucluse, Wapping Road (Parts in Metropolitan Museum, NY), Middletown, Newport County, RI

description

Summary

Significance: At the time of the HABS survey (1938), Vaucluse was in poor condition. The district officer described it as "a two-story clapboarded structure with minor wings, with brick and stone foundation." He also noted there were two interior end chimneys in the original part of the house. Since then, the house has been demolished and its doorway with side and toplights and carved frieze preserved in the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

Unprocessed Field note material exists for this structure: FN-16

Survey number: HABS RI-16

Building/structure dates: 1784 Initial Construction

Building/structure dates: 1893 Subsequent Work

This is another AI-assisted collection, this time it features 20K+ images of manors. A manor is a large country house with lands, the principal house of a landed (country) estate. This collection took about 15 minutes to make, including adding about 18,000 relevant images as "manors" and removing portraits of people with "Manor" last names. Of course, image recognition was already done before and that process required much much longer time and machine resources. Please contact us if you need large image sets or need to tag your own large collections using our neural networks.
