Шаблон:Infobox NRHP The Dr. Henry Clay House near Paris, Kentucky was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1]

Located in the Bluegrass region of Kentucky, this house was built by Revolutionary War Veteran Dr. Henry Clay, (distant cousin of politician Henry Clay) in 1787.

Property

The property runs along a farm road which goes southwest from Winchester Road in Bourbon County, Kentucky. The house, known locally as "the Fort", is a very early small stone house built as a rare double pen, with one-and-one-half stories with interior end chimneys. The lower floor has two rooms and stairs in the northeast corner that lead up to a second floor. A frame shed was the most recent addition on the east side of the house, used to store hay. The north side of the property contains a family cemetery, where Henry and his wife, Rachel Povall, are buried there along with other family members.[2]
