The Shubel Smith House, also known as Stonecroft, is a historic house at 515 Pumpkin Hill Road in Ledyard, Connecticut. It was built in 1807 as the estate of Shubel Smith, a sea captain.[2] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996.[1] The listing included three contributing buildings on a 6.5-acre (2.6 ha) area, including the Georgian Colonial house and the "Yellow Barn" as well as a smaller outbuilding.[1][2] Both of the large buildings have modernized interiors, serving as a bed and breakfast called Stonecroft Country Inn.[2]
