The Battey-Barden House is an historic house at 710 Plainfield Pike in Scituate, Rhode Island, US. It is a 2 1⁄2-story wood-frame structure with a large central chimney. A 1 1⁄2-story kitchen ell extends from the rear of the main block. The main block's construction date is uncertain, with architectural evidence suggesting it was built between about 1816 and 1831. It was probably built around 1824 for Horace Battey, a farmer and shopkeeper. The house is particularly notable for the stencilwork on its interior walls.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on August 29, 1980.[1]
