The Zelotes Holmes House in Laurens, South
Carolina, was built from 1859-1862, using the "gravel wall
construction" (poured concrete) advocated in Fowler's book. The house is
unusually large with each outside wall measuring 21 feet. The pink granite foundation
supports the "gravel walls" of slaked lime, sand and stone, 18
" thick in the cellar and tapering to 12" at the roof. The exterior
is finished in tan colored smooth stucco, scored to imitate stone. The house
features 14 octagonal chimneys, three original porches and a cellar with dirt
floor under the entire house.
