Moore House, circa 1862, is the oldest remaining house in Mount Airy. Located in the front yard is an outstanding rustic hexagonal summer house (circa 1865) constructed with wood poles and intervening laurel root walls and a wood shingle roof. The furniture inside the summer house includes a settee, chair and table with laurel root base and plank top. A picture of this very rare gazebo is in the North Carolina Architecture compiled by Katherine Bisher.
