It is a nearly-intact example of a late-Georgian early-Federal vernacular house, dating to the time of the construction of the "Fourth New Hampshire Turnpike", a major early highway through this region of central New Hampshire whose route is followed here by Route 4A.

A later owner, Nathaniel Stickney, was also a stagecoach driver on the route. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.The tavern is located north of the village center of Springfield, on the west side of NH 4A. It is set at an angle to the road, which has been realigned since the tavern was built. It is a large 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame structure, with a gabled roof and clapboarded exterior. Brick chimneys rise through the front roof face. The main facade is five bays wide, with sash windows arranged symmetrically around the center entrance. The entrance is simply framed, with a transom window and slightly flared lintel. The interior has had only modest alterations, most notably the movement of a wall on the ground floor to increase the size of the room that originally housed the kitchen.
