Hood County, Texas

The story

This Eastlake style house was built in 1890 for Granbury Merchant J.C. Lees, a native of Canada. The home was sold to S.L.

Bowden in 1895. Bowden's daughter Maude lived here after her marriage to Hardy H. Bryan in 1903.

The corner porch entry and corner tower with fish-scale shingles and pyramidal roof are dominant features of the Lees-Bryan house, which remained in the Bryan family for nearly 70 years. Recorded Texas Historic Landmark - 1985
