Gilman Garrison House is a historic house at 12 Water Street in Exeter, New Hampshire owned by Historic New England, which operates the home as a house museum.
Councillor John Gilman, a proprietor of sawmills and member of a prominent early Exeter family involved in shipping[2], built the log house around 1700 and fortified it for protection.[3] The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1976.[1][4][5]
