Cotesworth, Greek Revival mansion in North Carrollton, United States.

Cotesworth is a Greek Revival mansion on Old Grenada Road in North Carrollton, Mississippi. It began as an 1840s inn and was converted by James Zachariah George after he acquired it in 1847. The grounds also hold a free-standing hexagonal library built two decades after the Civil War.

Cotesworth was built as an inn in the 1840s on Old Grenada Road in North Carrollton. In 1847 the lawyer and future U.S. Senator James Zachariah George acquired it, converted it into a Greek Revival mansion and named it after Cotesworth P. Smith. It remained in his family until 2013, when his great-great-granddaughter Katharine Saunders Williams donated it to found the Cotesworth Culture and Heritage Center. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on June 9, 1978.

The house is named after Cotesworth P. Smith, not after a chief justice. Since 2013 it has operated as the Cotesworth Culture and Heritage Center, established when Katharine Saunders Williams, the senator's great-great-granddaughter, donated the property. The center hosts events and exhibitions on local culture and heritage.

Visitors should check opening hours in advance since the house follows seasonal schedules and is sometimes closed for private events. The expansive grounds require sufficient time to explore properly, especially if you want to see the separate buildings and outdoor areas.

The hexagonal library was added by Senator James Zachariah George about two decades after the Civil War ended, so around the late 1860s to 1880s, as a free-standing structure on the grounds. It is the detail most visitors walk past without noticing, separate from the main Greek Revival house.
