The Inn’s History
The Captain Lord Mansion was built
during the War of 1812 as an elegant
private residence, by wealthy shipbuilder Nathaniel Lord.
Commerce along
the New England coast had been disrupted by a British blockade and
Nathaniel Lord put his idle shipwrights to work building him the most
impressive house in the area.
Nathaniel chose famous architect Thomas
Eaton to design his house and it rivals the finest Federal Period homes
found in places like Salem, Ma. and Newburyport, Ma., two other towns
famous for their remaining Federal mansions.
The Captain Lord Mansion is
now listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It has been
operated as a Bed & Breakfast Inn for 25 years. |
