CH-58 Mill Hill Road House Berry vie. Private

circa 1830

Known as the "Mill Hill Road House," this modest frame dwelling represents an

almost complete reconstruction of the original building that stood on the site. Badly

deteriorated in the 1930s, the house was acquired by Alverta Berry and stabilized. Since

that time, the dwelling has undergone several renovations. While little of the original

building fabric remains, the dwelling retains its typical vernacular Southern Maryland form

and interior layout. The only distinguishable original feature is the enclosed dog-leg stair.

The "Mill Hill Road House" stands on a portion of the "Friendship" tract that was

owned and occupied by Dominic Mudd during the mid-19th century. In 1862, Mudd

devised the 260-acre tract of "Friendship" upon which he was then residing to his children.

The Mudd family continued to own the property until 1900 when the remaining 100 acres

of it was sold to John D. Jenkins of Prince George's County.

Known as the "Mill Hill Road House," this modest frame dwelling represents an almost complete reconstruction of the original building that stood on the site. Badly deteriorated in the 1930s, the house was acquired by Alverta Berry and stabilized. Since that time, the dwelling has undergone several renovations. i While little of the original building fabric remains, the dwelling retains its typical vernacular Southern Maryland form and interior layout. The only distinguishable original feature is the enclosed dog-leg stair.

Located on a rolling 12-acre tract, the house is sited atop a small hill facing north. The house and its immediate surroundings are enclosed by a chainlink fence and only a handful of trees adorn the lot. There are three associated outbuildings, one being a early­to-mid-19th century tobacco barn.

The house displays a common vernacular form for the region. It is 1-1/2-stories in height with a simple single-pile, 2-room pl;an, and exterior end chimneys. It likely had a full-width front and possibly rear porch. Today, what was once the rear porch has been mostly enclosed to create a utility room.

The building's foundation is not readily visible, but a course of randomly placed stone located at the base of the eastern chimney indicates that it may have once sat on a stone foundation. A recent owner indicated the much of the sill and foundation were replaced or shored-up during the last renovation. The exterior is clad in replacement wood weatherboard, and no original exterior features are evident. Both exterior gable-end chimney stacks have been reconstructed. While the larger of the two chimneys at the eastern gable end was reconstructed in an authentic historic form and incorporates original bricks, the western chimney's design was altered to accommodate the large modern windows that light this

The house was minimally surveyed in the 1970s by J. Richard Rivoire who noted that the house was a ''One story frame house one room in depth and two in length. Roof ridge runs E and W with chimney at each gable end. Boxed in corner stair on rear center wall of E room. Second floor has narrow center hall sheathed in vertical battens with two rooms containing fireplaces and eave storage. Chimneys fallen and house going fast. Offered once to Society for the Restoration of Port Tobacco but turned down." See Maryland Inventory of Historic Sites Inventory Form for CH-58, "Mill Hill Road House," n.d.

county and state

The facade arrangement reflects the original hall-parlor plan, featuring a single-leaf off-center entry with a window located directly west of it, and another window set at the eastern end of the facade. Both the 6/6 sash windows and the panel-and-light wood door are replacement materials. A shallow shed-roofed front porch extending across the majority of the facade, is supported on 4" x 4" wood posts and covered with sheet metal roofing. The main side gable roof is also clad with sheet metal and forms a steeply pitched profile.

Two 6/6 wood sash windows open into each of the gable ends, one on the first story and one on the second. The rear elevation is broken by only one window opening that contains a wood 4/4 sash. The only other entrance to the house is located at the west end of the enclosed rear porch. This entry holds a single-leaf panel-and­light wood door.

The house's interior has been significantly altered, although the essential layout appears to remain. The house is divided into two rooms on the first floor now used as a kitchen and living room. The entry opens into the living room with the stair located in the southwest corner of the kitchen. During one of the renovations the original flooring, mantels, and many of the chimney bricks were given to the Barbours who lived at Stagg Hall in Port Tobacco (see CH- ??? ) . Today, the interior is finished with modern Colonial Revival style finishes. The original enclosed dog-leg stair features beaded wood paneling, narrow treads and tall risers, and a beaded tongue-and-groove vertical board closet door below the stairs.

The dwelling's second story contains two small bedrooms, similarly re-finished. There was no access to the building's roof structure at the time of the survey.

OUTBUILDINGS:

Of the four related outbuildings, only two can be considered contributing. The oldest of these is a early-to-mid-19th century tobacco barn. The barn is constructed of rough-hewn support posts set in the ground that are mortise-and-tenoned to the sill. The steeply pitched gable roof consists of common rafters butted and nailed at their apex. Many of the barn's original tobacco drying

rods remain in place. Sheds have been added to all four sides, and concrete piers added at the corners. The exterior is clad with vertical boards.

The second contributing outbuilding is a frame corn crib erected in the 1920s. Standing on a wood pier foundation, the building features a front gable roof covered with standing seam metal and slatted walls with weatherboards in the gables.

The remaining two outbuildings are directly related to the house. One, a 1950s garage, features a front gable roof, a hinged double­leaf door, and vinyl siding. The roof is covered with sheet metal. The last outbuilding is a pre-fabricated 1970s-1980s frame shed with an asphalt-shingled gambrel roof.

===================================================================

The "Mill Hill Road House" stands on a portion of the "Friendship" tract that was owned and occupied by Dominic Mudd during the mid-19th century. In 1862, Mudd devised the 260-acre tract of "Friendship" upon which he was then residing to his children. The Mudd family continued to own the property until 1900 when the remaining 100 acres of it was sold to John D. Jenkins of Prince George's County.

Five years later, Jenkins sold the same tract to Richard T. Ward of Washington, D.C. The property continued to switch hands going from one absentee owner to another until 1928 when the then owner, george Gibson sold the property to the Hamil ton family. The Hamilton's retained ownership until 1972, when they sold 14 acres with the house to Alverta B. Berry. Berry continues the own and rent out the house.

A survey made in the 1970s before the most recent and most major renovation, indicates that the house was constructed circa 1830. (see footnote #1) Little remains today to confirm that date, however.

At one time, the building was offered to the Society for the Restoration of Port Tobacco as a period dwelling, but the society turned it down. The former surveyor noted that the house happen to have the same dimensions and similar form as the old Port Tobacco Times building that once stood in Port Tobacco.

The many alterations made to the house have jeopardized its historical significance. However, the building continues to illustrate a typical vernacular form popular in Southern Maryland during the late 18th and early 19th century.
