Wikipedia Description: Hampton National Historic Site
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Hampton National Historic Site, in the Hampton area north of Towson, Maryland, United States, preserves a remnant of a vast 18th century estate including a Georgian manor house, gardens and grounds, and original stone slave quarters. The estate was owned by the Ridgely family for seven generations, from 1745 to 1948. The Hampton Mansion or manor house, once known locally as the "Hampton House", was the largest private home in America when it was completed in 1790 and is considered today to be one of the finest examples of Georgian architecture in the U.S. Its furnishings, together with the estate's slave quarters and other preserved structures, provide a comprehensive insight into late 18th century and early 19th century life of the landowning aristocracy. Hampton is the first site selected as a National Historical Site by the U.S. National Park Service for its architectural significance.

In addition to the mansion and slave quarters, visitors today may tour the overseer's house and grounds. Hampton National Historic Site is 4 miles (6.4 km) north of Baltimore at 535 Hampton Lane, near interchange #27B of the Baltimore Beltway (I-695) and Dulaney Valley Road (Maryland Route 146).

History:

1700s:

The property now known as the Hampton estate was originally part of a land grant called Northampton given to Col. Henry Darnall (c. 1645–1711), a relative of Lord Baltimore. His heirs sold the land on April 2, 1745, to Col. Charles Ridgely (1702–1772), a tobacco farmer and trader. The bill of sale records that the property included "...houses, tobacco houses (tobacco barns), stables, gardens, and orchards". By the late 1750s, Hampton extended to more than 10,000 acres (4,047 ha) and included an ironworks. His son, Captain Charles Ridgely (1733–1790), expanded the family business considerably, including gristmills, apple orchards, and stone quarries. During the American Revolutionary War, the ...More...

2001 photos: Image quality is going to be pretty bad because these are scans of negatives and prints. They were usually taken on a Pentax ME-Super. This was the year of 9/11 and many of the places that had been commonplace to visit beforehand suddenly became a pain in the neck or not available at all. I took a two-week trip right before 9/11 in New England and then took a one-week trip afterward to North Carolina.
