The original house was constructed without the use of nails. The house was held together by an ingenious system of dovetails and trunnel pins. The earthen floor of the house was covered with pine boards in 1730. The house is small and takes only a short time to see. However, those interested in early architecture will certainly like the tour.
Various furnishings represent life of the time.
The Nothnagle House is actually attached to the private home of Doris and Harry Rink, who conduct the tour. Call before you visit. Groups by appointment. South to I-295 South. Take Exit 17 and travel south on Swedesboro Rd.
