Ten Mile House, built around 1820, is said to be the oldest extant brick building in the state of Arkansas. The building is named for its location on the Old Stagecoach Road, and stands ten miles from downtown Little Rock. David O. Dodd, so-called "Boy Hero of the Confederacy," was arrested near the stagecoach stop during the Civil War and later executed as a spy. Ten Mile House is said by some paranormal investigators to be haunted by Dodd's ghost.

The structure is also sometimes identified as the Stagecoach House or McHenry House.
