The Hugh Wilson Hill House, also known as the Kelly-Stone-Hill House, is a historic house in Carrollton, Pickens County, Alabama.[2] It is one of only a few surviving antebellum structures remaining in the town. Architectural historians believe that the one-story Greek Revival-style house was built for Isham and Elizabeth Kelly during the late 1830s or 1840s. Confederate general John Herbert Kelly grew up in the house.[3] It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on April 13, 1989.[1] It was listed as one of Alabama's "Places in Peril" for 2010 by the Alabama Historical Commission and Alabama Trust for Historic Preservation.[3]
