Ballestone Mansion - Essex MD - U.S. National Register of Historic Places on Waymarking.com

National Register of Historic Places Inventory--Nomination Form

Significance: Ballestone Mansion is one of the few farm-related buildings to have survived in this area of rapid 20th-century development. The house has had a long life full of alterations. Although part of it was built circa 1800, little of this now remains, and the house as it stands today is illustrative of the large farmhouse of the 1870s and 1880s.
