The Bishop B. Blackwell House (also known as the Weldon House) is a historic house located at 110 Parshley Street, off U.S. 129 in Live Oak, Florida.

Description and history

The house, which was built in 1886, is unusual in comparison to other local houses of the same period due to its brick veneer and single side hall plan. The urban character of the house was originally more subtle, with a two-story veranda that surrounded it on all sides. The veranda was demolished when the house was moved back from the street, and was subsequently replaced with a front porch.

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on February 28, 1985.
