| History is in the Air at Cider Mill House The strong stone house that is Cider Mill House * has stood the test of time and been silent witness to 200 years of history. Before its existence a log cabin stood to the South - most likely the temporary residence while the stone house was being built. Since the land was granted by Lord Thomas Fairfax to Aron Jenkins, November 18, 1752, eleven owners have planted orchards, raised livestock, farmed the land and made the stone house home. Before the land was taken and granted by the English Crown, Native Americans passed across it on well worn trails. They paused at the spring and mined flint from the hillside. Hundreds of their “points” and tools have been found in and around the spring and garden area. The French & Indian War, the Revolutionary War and the War Between the States have left their mark on the property and the surrounding region. Some nearby historic sites include Ft. Frederick, Hagerstown, MD, Antietam ,Sharpsburg, MD, Gettysburg, PA, Harpers Ferry, WV, Berkeley Springs, WV ( Geo. Washington’s spa), The C&O Canal Nat’l Park. Martinsburg and Berkeley Springs offer shops and historic sites as well. *And...why do we call it Cider Mill House? At one time an apple cider press and mill was located to the North of the house near the barn. We recovered the hand hewn drive screw mechanism from the barn and some other pieces that had tumbled into the creek. |
