Seth C. Bradford (1801-1878)〔Yarnall, James L. ''Newport Through its Architecture''. 2005.〕 was an American architect from Newport, Rhode Island. During his career, Bradford was known as a designer and builder of Italianate-style residences for Newport summer residents. However, at least three of his designs utilized a Gothic Revival vocabulary. Today, he is most remembered for his design of Chateau-sur-Mer, the Wetmore family residence on Bellevue Avenue. In addition to being Bellevue Avenue's first great mansion, it is also credited with introducing the Second Empire style to Newport (although the original mansard has since been replaced).〔 His popularity in Newport waned in the 1850s, as other local architects like Thomas A. Tefft and George C. Mason began to exert their influence. ==Architectural Works== * Charles Lyman Cottage, 66 Webster St., Newport, RI (1847–48)〔 * Rockry Hall (Albert Sumner Cottage), 425 Bellevue Ave., Newport, RI (1848)〔 * James H.
