Archibald-Adams House is a historic two-story wooden house at 122 Main Street in Cherryfield, Maine. Built about 1795, it is one of the town’s oldest buildings and was probably built by Thomas Archibald. The house sits on the west side of Main Street near the Narraguagus River. It has a hip roof, clapboard siding, a granite foundation, and two brick chimneys. The front has two five-bay facades with a center entrance; the south entry features Greek Revival styling with sidelights, pilasters, a transom, and an entablature, while the east entry is simpler. Inside, much of the late-19th-century woodwork remains. The Adams family became connected to the house when Elizabeth Archibald married Joseph Adams, who was a local leader. Today the house operates as the Englishmans Bed and Breakfast and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
