Paul Cuffe Farm, National Historic Landmark farmhouse in Westport, Massachusetts
The wooden farmhouse stands on a granite foundation with two interior brick chimneys rising from the gabled roof at the East Branch Westport River.
Built around 1780, this property remained under the continuous ownership of the Tripp family between 1748 and 1884, contrary to earlier attributions.
The farmstead reflects the architectural patterns of late 18th-century New England agricultural buildings with its construction methods and materials selection.
The farm property extends along Drift Road and includes evidence of former wooden-pile wharves and submerged granite blocks from historical maritime activities.
The farm received its National Historic Landmark designation in 1974 based on an incorrect association with Paul Cuffe, a prominent African-American merchant.
