    Slave Cemetery at Rock Hill Farm, circa 1820

    Rock Hill Farm is situated in the rural, rolling Piedmont landscape of Loudoun County, Virginia, on Route 719. As noted on a date stone found in the building’s gable, the principal Quaker-approach dwelling was designed in 1797 when Abner Humphrey, a nearby farmer and non-Quaker slaveholder, owned the assets. Abner Humphrey also appears to be accountable for the building of the ca. 1797 Pennsylvania bank barn, ca. 1797 tenant home, ca. 1797 smokehouse and potentially sections of the ca. 19th-century industry stone fences. Rock Hill would proceed to be owned by descendants of Abner Humphrey till 1947, and the household is accountable for a the greater part of the article-1797 adjustments designed to the farm, together with a ca. 1873 office environment/dairy, a ca. 1873 corn crib, and a ca. 1873 livestock shelter. Regionally significant beneath Criterion C for architecture, the dwelling alone is also a perfectly-preserved instance of a Quaker-system dwelling with preserved 1797 woodwork that represents the function of a master craftsman. Due to the fact this kind of a dwelling is closely involved with Quaker settlements in Loudoun County, the Rock Hill Farm property, as well as the financial institution barn, also stand as testaments to the affect of Pennsylvanian Quaker architectural and agricultural traditions on their non-Quaker neighbors. The period of time of significance for Rock Hill spans from 1797, the development date of the key household and many secondary sources, to ca. 1950 which signifies the later on architectural and historic evolution of the farm. The contributing methods at Rock Hill, as very well as its rural, agricultural location, have managed their historic character, model, craftsmanship, construction procedures and elements and so also keep their historic integrity.

  • “Grace Episcopal Church in Albemarle County, Virginia”

    Grace Episcopal Church- Albemarle County VA (3)

    William Strickland was an American architect who played a major role in the transformation of Philadelphia through his monumental commissions. He was known primarily for his work in the Greek Revival style but also designed churches, theaters, and administrative buildings. He also played a key role in engineering projects, including railroads, canals, and dams.

    Grace Church in Virginia is a rare example of Strickland’s Gothic style. The church was commissioned by Judith Walker Rives and built in 1847. The church’s original interior woodwork was executed by English master carpenter E.S. McSparren, but was destroyed in a fire in 1895. The church was soon rehabilitated with a new roof, interior, and chancel addition, but its walls and tower remain essentially as designed and continue to serve an active congregation. Strickland’s original drawings for the church are preserved.

    What a great environment of factors allowed the flourishing of high-quality arts at the beginning of the twentieth century? Was it the rising industrial bourgeoise course, ready to manage the fee of mosaics, statues, woodwork, wrought iron? Was it the mastery of craftsmen refined by the hundreds of years and then turn into state-of-the-artwork? Living in a century exactly where mass output of a lot less-than-shabby multiples is our only option, I like projecting myself into those people a long time, when men and women experienced considerably less but were being richer than us.
