====== Richard Parker House (BE 360) ====== A significant Greek Revival work in [[Boone County]], the Parker House is a classic five-bay I-house, built in brick. The large front door unit, with transom and sidelights, is finished with a crossette architrave surround. The 6/6 windows are topped by stone lintels. The gabled entry porch with engaged pilasters and paired Doric columns is a reconstruction. The lane leading to the house formerly was an old road, following Terrill’s Branch.

This house was built in [[1856]] for [[Richard Parker]], who served for a time in the Kentucky Legislature, and later passed to the [[Berkshire family]]. The house was added to the [[National Register]] in 1989. ===== More Information ===== ===== Related websites ===== * National Register Information (PDFs), [[https://npgallery.nps.gov/NRHP/AssetDetail?assetID=6ecd7c88-965b-46a5-832e-97d2c2ebf68a|inventory form and photos]] ===== Related Topics ===== * [[Petersburg]] * [[Historic Homes]]
