Winterham, "Dr. Payne's house"

Winterham

"Winterham, a Victorian-era home at 15101 Washington Street in Haymarket, has stood by quietly as commercial development has taken place elsewhere on the 3.4 acre lot it occupies. In the 120-or-so years of its existence, the old house has witnessed a lot of change, especially during the last decade.

The site occupied by Winterham goes back to 1799 and the establishment of the Town of Haymarket, when the land at the corner of Washington and Fayette streets was designated as Lot 80. The first recorded owner was Thomas Fallup, who purchased the lot in 1801.
