The Moyle House and Indian Tower, is a historic residence and watchtower in Alpine, Utah, United States, that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[1]

Description

The houses is located at 606 East 770 North, on the northeast side of the Moyle Historical Park.

The house is expanded in 1859-1860 from a c.1858 dugout house. The tower built during 1860–1866 was built as a private fort for defense against Indians of the Black Hawk War of 1865–1868, and is the only such tower known to have been built for protection of a single household in Utah. These stone structures were built by English-born mason and Mormon, John Rowe Moyle. His son Joseph Moyle expanded the house in 1917, adding Bungalow/Craftsman elements. A dugout/food cellar also was built during c.1858–60. These three structures are included in the NRHP listing.[3]

John Moyle also built a home for a second wife in a nearby property, not part of the NRHP listing.[3]

The property was listed on the National Register of Historic Places December 23, 1992. The listing included two contributing buildings and one contributing structure on {{convert|2.5|acre}}.[1]
