Henry Marchant Farm
The Henry Marchant Farm is an historic farm on South County Trail (Rhode Island Route 2) in rural western South Kingstown, Rhode Island. The main house of the farm is a 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame structure, probably built by Joseph Babcock. Construction is traditionally dated to the 1750s, but architectural evidence suggests it may have been built earlier—possibly between 1720 and 1740. The house has well-preserved vernacular Federal styling, including a main entry framed by Doric pilasters and an entablature. The farmstead includes an early 20th-century barn, a carriage house, and an old privy, as well as the family cemetery of the Marchant family. The property was purchased in 1774-75 by Henry Marchant, a leading Newport merchant and politician.
