Erected early in the 18th century, this house was purchased by the Colony to serve as the temporary residence of Governor Dinwiddie in 1751 while the Palace near-by was being repaired and enlarged. It was later the home of Robert Carter Nicholas, Treasurer of the Colony, and of Robert Carter of Nomini Hall. Still later, it was the home of Robert Saunders, President of the College of William and Mary. Restored.
