- Description:
- From its National Register of Historic Places nomination form prepared by Elizabeth Z. Macgregor and William R. Mitchell: Bedingfield Inn was built as a family residence and stagecoach inn circa 1836 by Stewart County doctor Bryan N. Bedingfield (1801-1846). Bedingfield Inn is a good example of what happened to the Classical Revival style in rural areas in Georgia where a simplified translation of such Renaissance-style buildings was necessary. Before the turn of the century the building was called Cuba House, used as a photographer's studio, millinery shop and, about 1903 became the Ard House, known for "setting a fine table." It later served as a boarding house, apartment homes, and office space. The furnishings of the restored inn are a careful selection of what would be typical of a circa-1840 stagecoach inn. Variant names include: Bedingfield Inn. See ref # 73000643 (Bedingfield Inn), https://www.nps.gov/subjects/nationalregister/upload/national-register-listed-20240710.xlsx
