The second was built in the early 17th century on the south side nearly opposite, where Shell Mex House stands today.

Famous quotes containing the word house:
“Men have their own questions, and they differ from those of mothers. New mothers are more interested in nutrition and vulnerability to illness while fathers tend to ask about when they can take their babies out of the house or how much sleep babies really need.”
—Kyle D. Pruett (20th century)
