History

The house was built on land from the Concord Plantation.[2] Ralph North, a Jefferson College alumnus, judge and slaveholder, purchased 14 acres in 1849 and built the house in 1850.[2] It was designed in the Greek Revival architectural style probably by James Hardie (architect).[2] Two years after the end of the American Civil War in 1867, it was acquired by Osborne K. Field.[2] It was purchased by Thomas Junkin in 1890.[2] In 1971, it was acquired by Thomas McNeely.[2]

The house has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since March 29, 1979.[3]
