Notes
  • Significance: The original structure is a typical 18th century house with two rooms below, two above and an English basement. It probably served as the temporary first courthouse of Albemarle County and was as well the home of several men prominent in the early history of Scottsville. / This typical 18th century house, two rooms below, two above, with an English basement, probably served as the temporary first courthouse of Albemarle County from 1745 to 1747. Built on a 550 acre tract of land patented by Edward Scott in 1732, it was first the home of his eldest son Daniel, proprietor of both a tavern and a ferry at the new courthouse, and later the childhood home of John Scott III, successful petitioner for the incorporation of Scottsville in 1818. The addition (c. 1800) is said to have been built with timbers taken from the nearby courthouse abandoned sometime after 1762.
