The Brownlee-Noland House, one of several buildings comprising the Arkansas Territorial Restoration, is an example of vernacular houses, built according to traditions handed down from generation to generation. It has typical Greek Revival styling, with finely-crafted, stone lintels and key situated above the doorway on the front facade.
Tradition has it that the lawyer Charles Fenton Mercer Noland lived here. In 1836, Noland was chosen to take, on horseback, the Arkansas State Constitution to Washington, D. C. for approval, whereby Arkansas became the twenty-fifth state on June 15, 1836.
The Arkansas Society makes an annual contribution to the Brownlee-Noland House, which is used by the Arkansas Territorial Restoration staff to acquire items that will further enhance the educational value of the house.
