Pinney and is essentially a double-pen log cabin. Its significance rests on that surviving log construction and original wood arched door and window mouldings.

Built of heavy log, it has a gable roof, a stone foundation, a basement, and a front with four bays and two on the side. The logs are covered with vertical boards and four-inch wood battens. Original wood arched door and window mouldings survive. The survey sheet identifies it as essentially a double-pen log cabin and notes that it appears to have stood on the farm of Dr. E.M. Pinney, as shown in an 1872 atlas. It sits alone in a soybean field about 1,300 feet west of the Frantz Road intersection, with an oil complex to the southwest. Originally a house, it is now described as derelict, in poor condition, and endangered by neglect. The property was included in a group of Washington Township historic resources, and its value lies in its surviving log construction and period woodwork.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":null,"criteria":[],"status_note":"Listed as derelict, in poor exterior condition, suffering neglect, and endangered; no preservation work is underway.","vacant_flag":true,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:53:12.719344-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_OH/79002786.pdf"},"photo":null,"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/71985115","wikipedia":null,"wikidata":null},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/ohio/franklin-county/pinney-road-log-cabin-79002786/"}
