E.W. McClellan House
The E.W. McClellan House is a historic house a short way southwest of the center of Canehill, Arkansas, off Arkansas Highway 45. The house is a two-story I-house, with a side gable roof and a prominent two-story gable-roofed portico at the center of its front facade. Its main entrance is flanked by sidelight windows and topped by a transom. Despite a post-Civil War construction date (c. 1866), the building features pre-war Greek Revival styling. There are 20th-century additions to the rear of the house.[2]
