The Lisle House, built 1800-1825 and located on Boone Trace (Highway 388/Redhouse Road), is about one mile south of the marker and off of the road on the right. It was significant as one of the earliest permanent structures built by Madison County settlers. Constructed of logs and now covered with weatherboards, a side dogtrot separates two rooms, each containing interior brick chimneys at the gable ends. A one-story frame connects to the main block of this house at its rear. Courtesy of Friends of Boone Trace, Inc.
