'Clench-Warton', the Henry Francis Cook estate designed by Montrose W. Morris c. 1891 in North Haven. Cook was vice-president, secretary and treasurer of the Fahys Watch Case Company, Sag Harbor. He was also the president of the Montauk Steamboat Co. and Sag Harbor Real Estate Co. 'Clench-Warton' originally sat on roughly 1,000 acres. The house has since been demolished but click HERE to see a still extant outbuilding.

Great looking house; the surviving outbuilding confirms Montrose W. Morris understood there is style in no particular style.
A great looking house. Montrose W Morris was a prolific architect during the late 19th C in Brooklyn NY with many fine surviving Queen Anne townhouses and elaborate free standing residential buildings in his portfolio of work to admire. archibuff
Delightfully exuberant
