Back Narrows Inn (Western Hotel)
When Norwood voted for incorporation in 1905, the election took place in this two-story frame hotel with a recessed, full-length front porch. Known earlier as the Western Hotel or Royer's Hotel, it is connected by a newer bridge building to an annex, a lapsided four-square.
