Old Town Landmark to House Historical Society The Capt. Downes House, standing as a reminder of Old Town's seafaring history, is typical of the period in which it was built, the late 1800's. Recently acquired by leaseby the Duncan Lamont Clinch Historical Society, it even sports a widow's walk where wives of sea captains and harbor boat pilots could watch the boats as their husbands guided ships in and out of the harbor. |
