Preston-Gaylord Cobblestone Farmhouse is a historic home located at Sodus in Wayne County, New York. The cobblestone dwelling was built in 1845–1846, and consists of a 1+1⁄2-story main block and 1+1⁄2-story rear wing. Both sections are constructed of irregularly sized and variously colored field cobbles. Also on the property is a contributing two-story cobblestone carriage house dated to 1845–1846. The structure is among the approximately 170 surviving cobblestone buildings in Wayne County.[2] The house is now used as a bed and breakfast known as the Maxwell Creek Inn Bed & Breakfast.
