The Ananias Mowry House (private) (L), 3.2 m., is a plain, well-preserved two-and-one-half-story frame structure with gable roof and central chimney (about 1700). The clapboarded exterior is painted yellow with green trim and there is an old well-sweep in the back yard. The place is occupied by Dr. George R. Smith, a descendant of the original builder. Many Mowrys were among the early settlers of Rhode Island Colony,and the family name is still prominent in the State.

Today the house sits just of RT 104 in very much a rural setting in North Smithfield. The house is gray with white trim. An addition has been added to the right.
