The Webb Horton House, is an ornate 40-room mansion in Middletown, New York, United States, designed by local architect Frank Lindsey. It is now part of the campus of SUNY Orange, known as Morrison Hall, and housing its main administrative offices. A nearby service complex has also been kept and used for the college as well.
It is an extravagant combination of styles and materials that has been altered very little during its subsequent ownership and use by the college. In 1990 it was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
