At 1.7 m. on Stillwater Rd. is the junction with Harris Rd.; left on the latter a few yards is (L) the Ainsell Angell House (1780), a large two-and-one-half-story frame structure now a tenement house. The building has many hand-hewn beams and wrought-iron latches. The design of the fan-light over the front door is similar to that of the Steere House. The delicate festooned ornaments of the fan-lights are executed in lead and the scroll keyblock over this doorway is sharply emphasized by being painted darker than the trim.

p.386 Rhode Island, A Guide to the Smallest State, 1937


The Angell House sits on a very narrow road that is very much in the country. The house is a beige gray clapboard house with white trim that is quite detailed. The fanlight still exist over the front door. The house is surrounded by a white picket fence and sits across the street from a large field.
