It was built as a farmhouse for the Bishop family and later owned and farmed by A.M. Noble, who held much of the land immediately south of the community.

South Street in Worthington, Ohio, is made up of two parts: a 1½-story, steeply gabled block and a two-story wing. The older section was originally dated to about 1850 and the wing to 1885. Later documentation revised those dates to 1857-59 and 1883 and renamed the property the Lewis Noble House. Built as a farmhouse for the Bishop family, it later passed to A.M. Noble, who owned and farmed much of the land immediately south of the village. The house is valued as a reminder of the agricultural character of the area around Worthington. It is also described as an unaltered example of rural architecture from two distinct periods of the nineteenth century, with original woodwork largely intact in both sections. It sits on a two-thirds-acre lot with many large trees in a suburban neighborhood, and was included in the Worthington multiple resource listing in 1980.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":null,"criteria":[],"status_note":"Inventory form lists a residence in good interior and exterior condition, with original woodwork largely intact in both sections.
