This exterior view shows the gabled front façade of the Jonathan Corwin House, also known as the Witch House, at 310 1/2 Essex Street in Salem, Massachusetts. A car is parked at a meter in front of the house, and another car is parked in a driveway next to the house. Jonathan Corwin served as a magistrate and judge during the Salem Witch Trials of 1692. Boston architects Gordon Robb and Frank Chouteau Brown led the restoration of the house which Historic Salem, Inc. started in 1945.
