ROUGHAM CENTRAL HOTEL This 1850's building was originally operated by Nelson Woodruff. For a period of several years during the 1850's, it became a Temperance Hotel, providing lodging and meals for travellers wishing quieter accommodations than those usually found in the taverns and hotels of the time. Competition from the other two hotels in Brougham eventually forced the owners to return to its original status as a hotel and tavern. After about 1870, it was operated as a General Store by a number of subsequent owners. Back to Main Menu
