History and description
The building is a three and one-half story brick building featuring Federal architecture and Flemish bond brickwork. It was built from 1810 to 1812 by Zephaniah Drake to accommodate stagecoach travelers. He sold it to Isaiah Fairclo in 1821, who soon resold it to another Drake. In 1854, William Rankin, a teacher, purchased the Chester Inn and transformed it into a classical college preparatory school, the Chester Institute. In 1862, he sold the building to the Budds.[2]
