The William J. Clark House, also known as the Stick Style House at Stony Creek is a historic house at 34 Prospect Hill in the Stony Creek neighborhood of Branford, Connecticut. It is a 2-1/2 story wood frame structure, with a busy and ornately-decorated roofline, including a three-story tower.[2] The house was designed by Henry Austin and built in 1878-80 for William J. Clark.[3]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1972 as "Stick Style House at Stony Brook", because its owner and designer were not known at that time.[1][2] The house is a contributing property to the Stony Creek-Thimble Islands Historic District.[3]
