Mallory Manor - 1867

This Fletcher Sloan designed home was constructed in 1867 for Dr. James Marshall Mask as his townhouse. It is an exact copy of the one which stood on his plantation near Hickory Valley.

The style of the home is a form popularly known in West Tennessee as a "piano box" house from its resemblnce to a square grand piano. It is a long, low house in the high Victorian style. The "lacework" of the dental trim is unusual in design and an excellent example of the popular "gingerbread" so often used in nineteen-century houses.
