Cornwell Inn

Cornwell Inn, also known as Cornwell's, is a historic inn located near Blackstock, Chester County, South Carolina. The original portion was built about 1841, and is a 1+12-story, five-bay, heavy-timber frame and weatherboard Federal style building, with a double pitched gable roof. It has two exterior end chimneys with free-standing chimney stacks and ten-foot deep, full length porches on two sides. A 1+12-story, five-bay addition with a full basement was added shortly after the original construction. It is one of South Carolina's surviving early stagecoach stops on a main state road, the Charlotte to Charleston Road.

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1994.
