Windows of Carriage House & Chapel, Waukesha County, Wisconsin

Elisha Edgerton Farm - The Carriage House had a small Episcopal chapel on the upper floor, where services were held for early settlers. According to "The Heritage Guidebook" by Russell Zimmerman, "This complex of buildings is all that survives of a great “Wisconsin premium” farm which was built by Edgerton on land that he settled in 1836. The small Gothic Revival carriage house, built in 1856, is made of limestone and trimmed with carved wooden window casings and bargeboards. Episcopal services were once held in a chapel upstairs."
