The Jenckes House is a fine colonial house set on one of Lincoln's oldest roads in a still-rural area of the town. Built by one of the numerous Jenckes (or Jenks) family in the mid-eighteenth century the house remained in the family until the early twentieth century. The primary significance of the Jenckes House is architectural; the progression of modifications and additions to the house (and their harmonious result) and the character and quality of the restoration make it a unique structure in Lincoln.
