First National Bank
1909, J. F. Wren, builder. 27 Main St.

This one-story, pressed brick building with stone trim has classical pilasters, a ball finial cornice around the entry, and a modest brick frieze. From 1938 to 1995 it was the post office, resplendent inside with the original rose marble counters, oak wood-work, and embossed metal ceiling.
