The only remaining structure of the Civil War period on the battlefield of Lookout Mountain, it was originally called the "White House." Erected 1857 by Robert Cravens, pioneer iron manufacturer of this area, it was rebuilt 1867 and restored 1956 by the Chattanooga Chapter, Association for the Preservation of Tennessee Antiquities.


Located in Chickamauga-Chattanooga National Military Park. The house may became a visitor center in the future.
