ERNESTO DELA CRUZ ANCESTRAL HOUSE - Mabalacat, Pampanga. Date of construction- Late 1800's. The grand house is a two-storey structure with a wooden upper floor and stone/concrete ground floor. The structure is supported by massive square columns and adobe arches. The massiveness of the house is softened by sliding louvered windows with the traditional ventanillas. The continuous 'media agua' below the roof enchances the elegant composition of the house. An unsual feature of this house is the interesting hip roof system enhanced by several dormers. Read more.
