Cobb, William Chipman and Susan Knowles House

A contributing property in the Eastham Center Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1999. This district is the civic, institutional and residential core that grew up as Eastham's third town center at Salt Pond, shaped by the arrival of the Cape Cod Railroad in 1870, which drew development southward around the new depot. Its buildings, dating largely from the mid-19th to mid-20th century (with a few surviving from the 18th century), reflect the town's community development during a long period of regional population loss partly offset by the railroad. The Village Improvement Society, active from 1891 to 1927, helped shape the district's physical character, and its early effort to save the old windmill counts among the earliest successful historic preservation efforts on Cape Cod.
