The Albert Swain Bryson House, known locally as Hall of the Pines, is a historic house in Franklin, North Carolina. The 2+1⁄2-story brick and frame house occupies a prominent site on Pine Lane overlooking Main Street. It was built in the 1870s for Albert Swain Bryson, a prominent local farmer and magistrate. The house is a regionally rare example of vernacular Gothic and Italianate style, with steeply pitched gables decorated with paired brackets, and a two-level porch with delicate sawn balustrade. ^[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984. ^[1]
