Its board-and-batten siding and small scale are described as rare in Fayetteville, reflecting mid-nineteenth century picturesque domestic traditions.","narrative":"A one-story frame house with board-and-batten siding stands in Fayetteville, North Carolina, dating to about 1862. Local tradition and architectural evidence associate it with the Fayetteville Arsenal, a federal facility authorized in 1836 that Confederate troops occupied in 1861. The house was built outside the arsenal walls during that occupation and is thought to have served as general living quarters, possibly for officers. Most Confederate-era outbuildings were destroyed by Sherman's army in 1865, and an 1865 map by an ordnance officer marks this house as one of the surviving wooden buildings. The house was moved a short distance and restored. It has a four-bay front porch with chamfered posts, and its interior retains wide pine flooring and a mantel said to come from a Bladen County house. Its rarity in the city and its ties to the Arsenal explain its listing.","period_of_significance":"c. 1862","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":null,"criteria":["A","C"],"status_note":"Moved a short distance and adaptively restored; now used as headquarters for the Fayetteville/Cumberland County Arts Council.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-haiku-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.1-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 17:11:41.275252-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/opastorage/live/87/7175/47717587/content/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_NC/83001862.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/83001862/d085e1ee2d-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/83001862/d085e1ee2d-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"Apc106","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:McCall_House_(3).JPG\" rel=\"noopener\">Apc106</a>, <a href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY-SA 3.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:McCall_House_(3).JPG"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/47717587","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McCall_House_(Fayetteville,_North_Carolina)","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q6800101"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/north-carolina/cumberland-county/mccall-house-83001862/"}
