\n<\/strong>600 Lexington St. Built in 1876 after the first courthouse on this site\u00a0burned. It houses a complete set of County records.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>
\n601 E Jackson St. Built for Capt. Connell in 1834. It was the first brick store in Carrollton built by Captain Connell. It is the only surviving store in a series of 19th century commercial buildings on the block. Owned by the Antiquities Society, the Museum is open by appointment. To make an appointment, call 1.662.392.4810.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>
\n305 Lexington St. Built in 1936 out of native pine logs with WPA labor. Mr. W. D. Felts was the contractor. The Community House is jointly owned by the Town of Carrollton and the Board of Supervisors for the County. \u00a0Contact the Carrollton Town Hall to rent – 1.662.237.4600.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>
\n115 Lexington St. Built in 1907 for the McEacherns. The roof of this house was to be steep enough that no leaks would ever occur. Now owned by Farrish Jenkins and used as an antique shop called “Coach’s Antiques and Stuff”. <\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>
\n112 W. Washington St. The present home was built circa 1875 with\u00a0Eastlake features. This is a fitting name for this rambling 2 story house whose owners have been many. It was remodeled in the 1990’s by the owners.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>
\n110 W. Washington St. The home was built prior to 1840 and remodeled for William Ray during the 1850s, adding a second story. Scenes from the movie “The Reivers” were filmed here.
\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>
\nLexington St. Gee’s Store is the oldest business in Carroll County under the same name.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>
\n904 College St. Also known as the James A. Young House, the home was built prior to 1841. Once the home of Dr. Holman whose family started the Jitney Jungle grocery store chain. Remodeled in the 1977 and enclosed with a wrought iron fence.
\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>
\n106 W. Washington Street. Built prior to 1869 and remodeled by R.L. Bingham. The opening scene of Falkner’s “The Reivers” shows Steve McQueen appearing\u00a0 on the upper balony.
\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>
\n801 Lexington St. Probably built by Dr. Hart circa 1880. Used as a boarding house and hotel until circa 1930.
\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>
\n715 Lexington St. \u00a0Chartered in 1838, the present building was constructed in 1899. \u00a0Three members of the Lodge have served as Grand Masters, including Fritz Neal who also served as an editor for The Conservative and State Treasurer.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>
\n600 Green St. \u00a0The Browning House, sometimes called the Buckland House after the builder, dates to 1891. It sits on the site of the first Carroll County Courthouse built in 1836.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>
\n103 E. Washington St. Built in 1838, this Greek Revival style structure served as the office for future Senators J. Z. George and H. D. Money while they practiced law in Carrollton.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>
\n<\/strong>209 Hafner St. \u00a0Built in 1902 with Queen Anne features, Wayside served as a “newlywed” home for Seven Gables.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>
\nGreen St. Built for Carroll County by the Pauly Jail Company, the Jail has living quarters for the jailer and his family, a communal cell, private cells and a “cell within a cell.” \u00a0The Pauly Jail Company is still in business today.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>
\nLum Reek<\/strong>
\n210 Peavy St. \u00a0Built in 1840, for many years this residence was known as Hayne Hall. \u00a0Recent restoration efforts not only saved\u00a0the home but added a comfortable living space utilizing materials from the original structure.<\/p>\n<\/a><\/p>\n<\/a>
\n<\/strong>1001 College St. The Oaks was built in 1848 for Green Jenkins. The Oaks has a framework built of hand-hewn materials pegged together. Nails were used only in the roof and weatherboarding. There are several\u00a0sets of double entrances in the original rooms.
