History
Constructed of red brick with a granite door and window sills. In 1854 the town granted permission to the Kentish Artillery, chartered in 1797, to benefit the public interest and the town deemed it in their interest to furnish a site. Designed by William R. Walker and Son, today it serves as the Warwick Museum of Art.
