The Shinn Curtis Log House lies in the heart of a historic section of Mount Holly, New Jersey, United States.[1][2] The early settler's home of hand-hewn logs originally built in 1712 was encased in a house and was uncovered in 1967 when the surrounding house was demolished. It was in the possession of the Curtis family for 147 years, since 1802, and is now owned by the Mount Holly Historical Society.[3] The building was relocated from what had been Water Street and renamed Rancocas Road.[4]
