The Joe Chase Adams House, also known as The Ledges, is a historic house in Lewisburg, Tennessee, United States. It was built in 1900 for Joe Chase Adams, a dry goods merchant who served as the mayor of Lewisburg.[2] It was designed in the Queen Anne architectural style.[2] Adams's granddaughter, Mrs. Ernest Wheeler Henegar, Sr. purchased the house in 1943; she subsequently hired Bill Knox to redesign the interiors.[2] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since December 2, 1993.[3]
