The Rascoe-Harris Farm, also known as the Anderson Farm or Maplewood Farm, is a historic farmhouse in Sumner County, Tennessee, U.S.. It was built circa 1824 for Thomas Howell Rascoe, a farmer who owned six slaves in 1830.[1] After the American Civil War of 1861–1865, some slaves became tenant farmers.[1] The farm was purchased by Green B. Paris in 1891.[1]

The house was designed in the Federal architectural style.[1] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since July 19, 1996.[2]
