Mt. Airy is a historic house in Cordova, Tennessee. It was built in 1835 for Asbury Crenshaw, his son Timothy, and their relatives.[1] The Crenshaws were settlers who owned slaves.[1] By 1850, it was acquired by Roscoe Feild, a Crenshaw relative who graduated from Princeton University and took part in the California Gold Rush.[1] During the American Civil War, Feild served in the Confederate States Army.[1] The house was subsequently inherited by his descendants, the Lattings.[1]
The house was designed in the Classical Revival architectural style.[1] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since February 14, 2002.
