About Sparta Rock House

The Sparta Rock House State Historic Site in Sparta city, Tennessee, United States. Worked in the late 1830s, the Rock House took into account activity along a critical wagon street amongst Knoxville and Nashville, offering severely required cabin and supplies to explorers who had simply crosse the rough Cumberland Plateau. The Rock House was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1973 for its engineering and its recorded part as a critical rest stop.

The Rock House was initially a rectangular structure worked of local sandstone quarried in the region. A segment once isolated the structure into two rooms, however that parcel has been expelled, and the first segment of the structure currently comprises of one vast room. A 1909 photo demonstrates an incompletely encased entryway patio spreading over the front divider, however by the 1940s the yard had been torn down. In the mid-twentieth century, another back area was added to the structure, worked of a similar sort of stone, however containing current comforts. The inside of the Rock House has extensive chimneys at the two finishes of the first structure, and the wooden entryways, window outlines, roof, floor, and shelves are altogether unique. It is one of the great place.
