The Eleazer Arnold House is a historic house in Lincoln, Rhode Island, in the Great Road Historic District. The house was built for Eleazer Arnold in 1693. The house is a fairly large "stone-ender," a type of building brought from the western England and commonly used in northern Rhode Island. It has two stories, with four rooms on each floor, exposed fieldstone end-walls, a lean-to, wooden side-walls, and a chimney. A gable had been added by the 20th century. In 1919 Preserved Whipple Arnold donated the house to Historic New England , at that time called the Society for the Preservation of New England Antiquities. The house was restored twice since then. The house is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and was declared a National Historic Landmark. It is open to the public on weekends.
