Port Tobacco Historic District is a national historic district in Port Tobacco, Charles County, Maryland. It is located along both sides of Chapel Point Road immediately south of Maryland Route 6. It includes five surviving 18th and 19th century buildings; four have been privately restored as single family residences. The fifh was renovated for use as a children's museum. Two of these buildings, Chimney House and Stagg Hall (listed separately), are immediately adjacent to one another at one corner of the town square. In 1972, the 1821-1892 courthouse was reconstructed on its original site for use as a museum of local history. Other buildings include several private residences built after 1940. A brick wellhouse was erected in 1958 to commemorate the county's tercentenary. Approximately 90 percent of the historic features of the community constitute archeological sites, nearly all of which have remained undisturbed by later development.〔(Maryland Historical Trust: Listing for Port Tobacco Historic District )〕 It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.〔 == Gallery == Image:Port Tobacco Courthouse Rear Sept 09.JPG|Port Tobacco Courthouse, Rear View, September 2009 Image:Port Tobacco Cemetery Sept 09.JPG|Port Tobacco Cemetery, September 2009 Image:Port Tobacco Marker Sept 09.JPG|Port Tobacco Historic Marker, September 2009 Image:Port Tobacco Schoolhouse Sept 09.JPG|Port Tobacco Schoolhouse, September 2009 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Port Tobacco Historic District」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
