The Maton–Hunt–Farnum Farm, also known as the Pardon Hunt Farm, is an historic farm located on Putnam Pike in Glocester, Rhode Island. The main house is a 2+12-story wood-frame structure, consisting of five bays in width, featuring a gable roof and a central chimney. It is situated on the north side of Putnam Pike. The property includes various farm outbuildings such as barns, henhouses, a corn crib, and a privy, located behind the main house. Constructed around 1793 by Daniel Manton, the house showcases exemplary Federal-style architecture both internally and externally.[2]
