Description and history

The Frederick Billings House stands in a residential area northwest of Porter Square, on the northeast side of Orchard Street between Blake and Beech Streets. It is a 2+12-story wood-frame structure, with a side-gable roof and clapboarded exterior. A single-story porch extends across the front, supported by tapered round columns. The gable eaves have decorative brackets, and the ground floor windows on the front are topped by lintels adorned with small brackets.[2] Two-story ells extend the original main block to the rear.

The house was built in 1846, not long after Orchard Street was platted for development. It was one of the first houses with Italianate styling to be built in the city (along with the adjacent John Aborn House), coming just one year after the style was introduced. The house was built by Joshua Fernald, a local master carpenter, and was located for convenient access to the Fitchburg Railroad depot (now the Porter MBTA station). The front porch is a later (1890s) addition.[2]
