The Bicknell—Armington Lightning Splitter House is an historic house at 3591 Pawtucket Avenue in East Providence, Rhode Island. The house is of a distinctive type of which only a few instances exist in the Providence area. It is a wood-frame structure with a steep two-story gable roof. Although it is claimed to have been built as early as 1827, architectural evidence suggests it was extensively altered, if not built, in the 1850s. It has modest Greek Revival styling.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on November 28, 1980.[1]
