The William Whalley Homestead is an historic farmstead in Little Compton, Rhode Island. The main house is a 1-1/2 story wood frame structure, probably built sometime between 1815 and 1830. The property includes a barn and second outbuilding dating to the late 19th century, bounded by a low stone wall.
