Description and history

The 2+12-story wood-frame house was one of the first houses built when Hamilton Street was laid out. It was built for Theodore Harrington, son of Henry Harrington, founder of Southbridge's Harrington Cutlery Company, a manufacturer of knives used in the manufacture of shoes. Its most notable feature is its ornate architrave and doorway with sidelights and transom window. [2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on June 22, 1989. [1]
