== Other notable places == * The Dr. Joseph Thompson house at 213 S. Main Street belonged to the town's first medical doctor and had an office in his home to the right of the building on the main floor. There is a [[porte-cochère]] that extends off that side as well. The home is an early [[American Craftsman|Craftsman period]] structure with a wrap-around porch. It was built in 1910 on land purchased from the Lyon family. Dr. Thompson was a native of [[Leasburg, North Carolina|Leasburg]] in [[Caswell County, North Carolina|Caswell County]]. He attended the [[University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill|University of North Carolina]] as an undergraduate before going to the [[University of Louisville School of Medicine]] for his medical degree. He moved to Creedmoor about 1908. He married Mayme Lunsford in 1910 and moved her to their home on Main Street (at that time, a four-room, one-story cottage). He practiced medicine in northern Wake and southern Granville County until 1957 and died at home in August 1958. * The [[Cedar Creek Gallery]] was built in 1968 on what used to be an old tobacco field in the community of Northside.
