Description du lieu patrimonial
The Cluett House is a two-story house with a steeply pitched gable roof on School Lane in Belleoram. The designation is confined to the footprint of the building.
Valeur patrimoniale
The Cluett house has been designated as a heritage building because of its historic and architectural value.
Historically, this house is important because of its place in the community and the people associated with it. This house was one of the first houses built in Belleoram and currently it is one of the oldest standing buildings in Fortune Bay. John Cluett Sr. is historically important to the community because he was one of the earliest planters in Belleoram; he was a successful merchant, and he also built a number of other structures in the town including the church and a school.
Architecturally, the Cluett house is a good example of the early sharply gabled houses typical of the period in Fortune Bay. The builder of the home, John Cluett Sr., was influenced by the building styles in his homeland, England, and this influence can be seen in features such as the linhay on the back of the house.
