description

Summary

Significance: Built ca. 1810, the House at Cherry Walk forms the centerpiece of this well-crafted, nineteenth-century Chesapeake region farmstead. With prim farmer's house and large collection of carefully constructed support buildings, Cherry Walk remains as a remarkably intact example of the highly respectable sort of farmstead that successful landowners below the level of grandees strove to create beginning in the decades after the Revolutionary War.
