The Willard Historic District, is a historic district in Willard, Utah, United States, that is listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP).

Description

The district covers 160 acres (0.65 km), includes 117 contributing buildings, and is roughly bounded by 200 West, 200 North, 100 East, and 200 South streets.

It includes a school built in 1902, and work by builder Shadrach Jones, and some houses combining elements of Greek Revival and Gothic Revival style.

The town of Willard, about 45 miles (72 km) north of Salt Lake City, Utah was settled in 1851 and was originally named Willow Creek for the stream lined by willows which descended from a canyon and flows west toward the Great Salt Lake. It was later renamed Willard for Willard Richards, a Mormon apostle. One home in the district, the Lyman Wells House, was built in the early 1850s. The village was laid out largely in conformance to Mormon plans for a City of Zion.

The district was listed on the NRHP June 25, 1974.
