An earlier post discussed Wm. H. Scovill of Scovill Brass who once owned this house (http://rothphotos.blogspot.com/2022/11/union-station-from-cast-iron-gate-to.htm), once the finest in Waterbury. Style is the outer form of spirit and it has always seemed to me that Rose Hill might well have emerged out of the pages of a Hawthorn short story. Perhaps part of that comes from its apparent stubborn indifference to the changes happening all around it and to the untended hillside hump on which it sits and from which it overlooks the city. Carrie Welton’s time in the house adds a plot line: https://coloradoencyclopedia.org/article/carrie-welton.

It's the kind of house that would make a fantastic HAUNTED house on Halloween, Ted, in the dark. WOW. Gotta love the architecture and how you have showcased it!
Thank you, Ginny. A fit place for children's day care.
I recall that when U. of CT (UConn) owned the building, they expelled all the ghosts. The ghosts would not pay tuition fees.
