The Snook House, in Shelby County, Kentucky near Mulberry, Kentucky, was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.[1]
The vernacular, T-plan house was built around 1895, with lumber from the nearby farm of Woodlawn (Sh-205, presumably also NRHP-listed) [ is this John Edward Crockett House, at "West side of Logan Rd ., 1/2 mile south of KY 12," whose documentation sourcing includes 1974 article about Woodland: ("Woodlawn Shows Remarkable Beauty, Finesse in Design," The Sentinel-News. Shelbyville, KY, July 18, 1974.) found in searching MRA doc which includes all these Kentucky Historic Resources inventories? ] GET THAT ARTICLE
From David Edward Crockett House doc: "John E. Crockett was a brother of Robert Y. Crockett, builder of Sh-205, an equally impressive 2-story, 3-bay, frame Greek Revival structure of the same period, but now in a deteriorated condition."
SH-205 is omitted from list p. 47-50 of PDF of Shelby County MRA, so apparently not NRHP-listed.
There is a Woodlawn Rd. in Shelby County, including 1699 Woodlawn Rd. and 2541 Woodlawn Rd. which have real estate listings. And a Woodlawn Cemetery.

It was deemed significant as a "well-preserved example of the late 19th century (1865-1900) 1 1/2-story, frame T-plan without passage. It is only one of 2 T-plans without passages identified in the county, and the only 1-story example.[2]
The listing included three contributing buildings and a contributing structure.[1] "Included is a frame outbuilding and an underground cellar which contribute to the site and a non-contributing frame garage. A contributing cistern, like the outbuilding and cellar, are integral parts of the original domestic space and demonstrate the function of a rural house."[2]
Its listing followed a 1986-87 study of the historic resources of Shelby County.[3]
