The England House is a historic house at 2121 Arch Street in Little Rock, Arkansas. It is a broad two-story brick building, capped by a hip roof with gabled dormers. The main facade has a porch extending across its facade, supported by large brick piers. Its basic form is reminiscent of the Prairie School of design, but the house has Classical elements, including its (now enclosed) south side porch, which is supported by large Tuscan columns. The house was built in 1914 to a design by architect Charles L. Thompson.[2]
