The home of Lucius Wyman Carroll, on Broadway in Norwich, remained in his family until it was acquired by the Phillips family in 1983. Carroll was an industrialist who owned textile mills. The construction date of 1850 (cited in a brochure PDF file) seems early for a Second Empire style house with a Mansard roof. Perhaps it was built later or the roof was added later.
