Thomas Fenner House, Colonial stone-ender house in Cranston, United States.

The Thomas Fenner House features stone construction methods with one end wall entirely made of stone and includes typical elements of colonial architecture.

Captain Arthur Fenner built this residence in 1677 after King Philip's War for his son Major Thomas Fenner, making it the second oldest house in Rhode Island.

The structure represents early American building techniques and settlement patterns in New England during the colonial period of the seventeenth century.

Located at 43 Stony Acre Drive in Cranston, the house welcomes educational groups and offers accommodations for short-term stays.

Wood from the original Fenner Castle was used to create the Rhode Island Mace, connecting this property to state governmental traditions.
