Wall Spring, also known as Elliott Springs, is a historic mansion on a farm in Gallatin, Tennessee, U.S.. It was a horse farm in the Antebellum Era.

History

The house was built in 1827 for Colonel George Elliott, a veteran of the War of 1812 and the First Seminole War.[2] Elliott bred horses on the farm.[2] He was a co-founder of the Nashville Jockey Club in Nashville, Tennessee in 1807 alongside President Andrew Jackson and Governor Newton Cannon.[2] His brother Charles lived at Walnut Grove nearby.[2] Colonel Elliott died in 1861, and Wall Spring remained in the Elliott family until 1869.[2]

Architectural significance

The house was first designed in the Federal architectural style.[2] It was redesigned in the Italianate and Greek Revival architectural styles in the 1850s.[2] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since April 8, 1994.[3]
