The Jotham Woodruff House is a historic house at 11 Alyssa Court in Southington, Connecticut. Probably built about 1790, it is a good local example of late Georgian architecture with later Greek Revival alterations. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]

Description and history

The Jotham Woodruff House stands in what is now a suburban residential area east of downtown Southington, on the south side of Woodruff Street at its junction with Alyssa Court. It is a 2-1/2 story wood frame structure, with a gabled roof, central chimney, and clapboarded exterior. The gable ends have broad fascia boards and returns that are a 19th-century modification. Its main facade is five bays wide, with a center entrance flanked by sidelight windows and pilasters, and topped by a broad corniced entablature. A single-story shed-roof bay projects to the left side, and a single-story gabled ell extends to the rear, joining the main block to a 20th-century garage.[2]

The house as traditionally been ascribed a construction date of about 1730, but stylistic evidence suggests a later date. It was probably built around 1790 by Jotham Woodruff, a member of one of Southington's founding families, who married in 1793. The entrance surround and the gable returns, added in the mid-19th century, are Greek Revival alterations.[2]
