Shaw Mansion (New London, Connecticut)

The Shaw Mansion (also known as the Shaw-Perkins Mansion and as the Shaw Mansion Museum) is a historic mansion and historic house museum at 11 Blinman Street in New London, Connecticut. It is a large three story granite structure, whose main block is six bays wide, with a single-story porch extending across its width.
