Notes
  • Significance: Route 138 (Eldred Avenue) is the northern boundary of the Windmill Hill National Register Historic District. The district is significant for its excellently preserved eighteenth and nineteenth century architecture, including agricultural, religious and residential structures and its unspoiled rural landscape. The district is the best example of an eighteenth century Quaker farming community extant in Rhode Island. The Nicholas Carr Farm (present-day Dutra Farm) is one of six farmsteads that comprise the district. The Carrs were early proprietors of Jamestown, prominent for their involvement in state and local politics, and prosperous from their farming and business exploits on the island.
  • Survey number: HABS RI-396
