Things To Do -> History and Heritage -> Historic Landmarks (Asheboro)
The Gatekeeper‘s House is the only surviving structure of the Basil John Fisher estate. Fisher, a native of Scotland, traveled to Asheboro in the mid-1880s to help manage a Randolph County gold mine and acquired a 384-acre estate that included the Gatekeeper‘s House. Originally located near Sunset Avenue, the house was moved to its present location in 1964 and is noted for its elaborate eaves and porch post brackets.
