The C. P. Shipley House was a historic building located in Mason City, Iowa, United States. Clinton Pardes Shipley (1851–1936) was a native of Baltimore County, Maryland. He married Margaret A. McMillin (1853–1940) in Mason City on November 17, 1875.[2] The two-story Prairie School house, completed in 1913, had a stucco exterior, a broad hip roof and overhanging eaves.[3] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980.[1] The house has subsequently been torn down. The Globe Gazette building is now on the property.
