Notes
  • Significance: The Carr House is architecturally significant for its hall-and-parlor design, a rare house plan in West Tennessee. Most examples survive in Middle and East Tennessee, and few examples remain in West Tennessee due to the fact that by the time the region developed the central hall or passage plan had replaced the hall-and-parlor plan. The house is historically important for being the oldest extant brick house in Shelby County. The building may also possess additional significance for its association with early transportation history. Built on a post road, the house purportedly served as a stagecoach stop during the early nineteenth-century when Shelby County was first settled.
