William Thompson House, Double-pen dogtrot cabin in Cypress Valley, Tennessee.

The William Thompson House features two main rooms connected by an open passageway, with free-standing chimneys at each end of the building.

Built between 1816 and 1819, this log cabin represents one of the few remaining structures from the early settlement period in Benton County.

The construction methods used in the house, including hand-squared timbers and dovetailed corners, demonstrate the building techniques of early American settlers.

The property maintains its original architectural elements and stands as an educational resource for those studying early Tennessee residential structures.

A continuous loft spans the entire length of the building beneath the gable roof, incorporating period-specific architectural features.

Location: Tennessee
