Fanthorp Inn State Historic Site, Historic inn and stagecoach stop in Anderson, United States.
The Fanthorp Inn spans 6 acres and features 17 rooms constructed from cedar logs with clapboard exterior in a rustic architectural style.
Henry Fanthorp, an English immigrant, established the inn in 1834 and expanded it by 1850 while serving as the first postmaster in the region.
