The walls where still standing when I was a kid in 60s along Glass Run Road a 1- 1/2 story early frontier stone house which was built into a hill side to prevent Indian attacks. From the rear all traces of it now long gone except for couple foundation stones .Why it was not preserved I will never know but the Pittsburgh Region has a way of just destroying its history.
I contacted the Baldwin historical group for info on this pioneer home but they where of no help at all.
As you wind down the road way from Baldwin Fire Dept about half way down you round one of the bends will see a nice split level home with a miniature barn with Mail pouch tobacco sign painted on it
Back behind where the pickup is parked if you go back into the hillside you will find whats left of the
one time pioneer home a couple foundation stones.
They can be seen better during winter time. But as Always Remember this is private property if you have a desire to further check it out. .
Don't know if the home owner even knows the home was back there. stopped a couple times but no one was home. .
