Notes
  • Significance: Captain Thorp's house is a representative example of Southport's local vernacular during the 1820s and 30s. Unlike some of the village's residences erected in the early nineteenth century, this building was designed on a relatively modest scale with attenuated classical details. The rectangular mass's distinctive characteristics are the one-story portico supported by fluted Greek Doric columns with a simplified entablature, an oval window filled with radiating mullions piercing the front gable pediment, and a delicately proportioned architrave and cornice over the principal windows.
  • Survey number: HABS CT-307
  • Building/structure dates: after 1820 Initial Construction
