According to local tradition, this small circa 1800 house was once the ordinary or "spirits" room of a hotel, which stood at the northeast corner of James Square. The building has been moved twice since its location there. It features a central chimney, which was prevalent in Fayetteville during the late 18th and early 19 centuries.
