Located on very busy Plank Rd (Hwy 67) just before entering into Clinton. Home is listed on the Walking tour of Historic Downtown Clinton. Very easy to locate and photograph, but BE CAUTIOUS, Plank rd is a VERY busy highway. Everything appeared to be in fine,restored condition.
According to official Parish website (located
here:) it is c. 1830. Not much else found in research, so here is a brief history from the Register application,located
here:The Boatner house is significant in the area of architecture as an unique example of Creole
architectural influence in a town which is widely supposed to be wholly English in its background. It
is also noteworthy for its handsome Federal Adams mantels which are the finest mantels in the
town.
