Dr. E. W. Newland House
1543 Hwy 160B
The April 6, 1911 Bayfield Blade reported “Dr. E. W. Newland has commenced the erection of a large dwelling on his orchard tract just north of Bayfield. This house will be modern in every particular. Bayfield is rapidly becoming a town of beautiful homes.” The January 4, 1912 Bayfield Blade reported that Dr. Newland had moved his family into their new and modern residence. The building was constructed from a Sears Catalog design plan; it appears to be a combination of two floor plans, the “Clyde” and the model “No. 119.” The Newland Family lived here from 1912 until the early 1940s.
Erected 2009 by Town of Bayfield and Colorado Historical Society. (Marker Number 10.)
