Clarkson House is a Federal-style house in Flaherty, Kentucky, United States that is believed to have been built in 1832. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.[1]

The two-story building has a hall and parlor plan, and the interior features Federal influence in its woodwork and mantels. An 1890 tornado caused damage to the foundation; being left unrepaired, the damage had led to sagging by the 1980s.[2]
