2010 - Detail of the Bell Farmhouse newel post


Elaborate carving and fluted detail near the top of the newel post. - The delicate carving helps display some of the decorative design found inside Major and Katherine Bell's Farmhouse at Indian Head.

It has not yet been determined if this newel post was original to the 1882 construction, or to later major renovations undertaken by Harry Campkin who owned the Bell Farm home quarter section from 1903 to 1912.

This newel post was donated to the Bell Barn Society on April 28, 2010 by Eleanor Holden, a former resident of the Bell Farmhouse.
