The Sparta Historic District in Sparta, Georgia, is a 50acres historic district which was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974. It included 26 contributing buildings. The Rossiter-Little House is a contributing property.
The district is roughly bounded by Hamilton, Elm, W, and Burwell Streets.
It includes the Hancock County Courthouse, a brick courthouse which was designed in 1881 by architects Parkins and Bruce of Atlanta. The courthouse was completed by 1883.[1] The morning of August 11, 2014, the courthouse was consumed in a fire, but was rebuilt and rededicated exactly 2-years after the fire.[2]
