Hampton, with an early nineteenth century log house moved and attached as a rear wing.","why_significant":"The nomination calls it one of the best-preserved nineteenth century examples of a typical, moderately prosperous farmer's residence in the county. It is a representative example of Piedmont North Carolina farmhouse construction from two eras. It also has distinctive features such as brick-nogged stud walls and a dirt-floor cellar with a fireplace, and is a well-preserved example of a recycled log house incorporated into a later dwelling.","narrative":"Near Arcadia in northwest Davidson County, this farmhouse combines two building eras under one roof. The main block is a two-story, three-bay frame I-house in simple late Greek Revival style, built about 1879 by farmer and county magistrate William B. Hampton, reportedly with his brother Robert, around the time of his marriage. Attached at the rear is a log house of about 1800, said to have been the home of his father and moved from a nearby hilltop to serve as the kitchen and dining room wing. Notable features include a two-story entrance portico with latticework supports, brick-nogged stud walls, original wood graining on the woodwork, and a fieldstone cellar with a fireplace. A handhewn, pegged granary also survives behind the house. The property was listed as one of the best-preserved nineteenth century examples of a moderately prosperous farmer's home in the county and as a representative piece of Piedmont farmhouse construction. It has stayed in the Hampton family since it was built.","period_of_significance":"ca. 1879","architect_builder":"Unknown (built by William B.
