Built around 1802 as an addition or replacement for an earlier home on the site, the house of Captain John Clark, on South Canterbury Road in Canterbury is, like the Prudence Crandall House, a prime example of the “Canterbury Style,” a regional development of the Georgian and Federal styles. Both of these houses are believed to have been designed by the same builder: Thomas Gibbs of Plainfield.
