 The gatehouse is a structure that was formally part of the Union Cemetery property and was originally used by Cemetery Superintendents.  It was built in 1859. At the time of its construction, it was built for the cost of $910.00 and done in the gothic revival style. The gatehouse saw many improvements over the years. In 1915 the Belle telephone was installed, in 1921 an indoor bathroom was added, and in 1947 steam heat came to the property. Over time, the house was no longer used by cemetery superintendents leading it to fall into disrepair. In 1986 it was then sold to the late Robert Gannon who restored this beautiful home.
