The Clara Barkley Dorr House is an historic home in Pensacola, Florida. Built in 1871, it is located at 311 South Adams Street. On July 24, 1974, it was added to the U.S.National Register of Historic Places for its classical revival architecture.[2]
Clara Barkley married Eben Walker Dorr in 1849. The couple lived in Bagdad, Florida where Eben worked for a lumber company. In 1870, Eben died. Clara had the house built in 1871 in Pensacola to accommodate her and her five children.[2]
By the 1960s, the house was in poor condition. The Pensacola Heritage Foundation bought the building in 1965,[2] restored it, and opened access to the public.[4]
