Notes
  • Significance: The brick Georgian townhouse, built ca. 1800, is one of the finest historic structures in Washington. It is distinguished by a handsome Georgian frontispiece and an elegant curved interior stairway. The well-proportioned Federal style mantelpieces and molded chair railings are particularly noteworthy. Behind the house is a small, two-story brick structure known as an "Indian Fort," which reputedly provided protection against attack by Indians. Harriet Beecher Stowe visited the house in 1833 and attended a slave auction at the old courthouse which was later the basis for Uncle Tom's Cabin.
  • Unprocessed Field note material exists for this structure: FN-50
  • Survey number: HABS KY-127
