The Charles Cheney House is one of the Cheney Mansions in Manchester that was constructed across the Great Lawn from Hartford Road. It is southwest of the adjacent Austin Cheney House. The Charles Cheney House was built in the Tudor style. Tax records indicate it was built in 1851, but may have a later date, when the Tudor Revival style was popular. Charles Cheney was one of the Cheney Brothers of silk manufacturers.
