Winston Place is a historic residence in Valley Head, Alabama. William O. Winston, a lawyer from Rogersville, Tennessee, moved to DeKalb County in 1838. Winston would later serve in the Alabama House of Representatives and was a major investor in the Wills Valley Railroad, which would later connect Chattanooga with Birmingham. Soon after arriving in Alabama, Winston built a two-story I-house. In the late 19th century, the exterior was extensively modified with a two-story, wrap-around, Colonial Revival porch and tetrastyle portico. Around 1930, rear outbuildings were connected to the house, giving it an L-shaped plan. The house was listed on the Alabama Register of Landmarks and Heritage in 1976 and the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.
