Joseph 0. Clark House (ca 1845): A 2 1/2 story, end-gable-roof, clapboard-sheathed, temple-front Greek Revival dwelling with a tetrastyle Doric portico sheltering a side-hall entrance framed by sidelights, paneled pilasters with fretwork in the recesses, and an entablature. There are extensive additions to the rear and a 19th-century barn converted into a garage. This is one of very few temple-front houses surviving in the state and is one of Harrisville's most elaborate dwellings. The original owner, Joseph 0. Clark, was a machinist.
