Our home, built in 1809, is situated in the heart of Bristol's Historic Downtown Waterfront District, one block from the Bristol Harbor, a stones throw from the Narragansett Bay. It was built by Col. Giles Luther, the first recorded Parade Marshall of Bristol's famous Fourth of July Parade, in the traditional Federal style. Now it exhibits Federal, Georgian, Greek Revival, Italianate and Victorian features.
At the turn of the 20th century, Charles Rockwell donated the building to the Bristol District Nursing Association and it became the town's medical clinic. In 1991, we lovingly restored the home, making it one of Bristol's finest residences and opened the Rockwell House Inn Bed & Breakfast.
