Cross Manor
Photographer: Allen C. Browne
Taken: November 23, 2011
Caption: Cross Manor
Additional Description: The house at Cross Manor which dates from before 1798, with 19th century additions, now belongs to Edward Kopple. It has been claimed that this is the oldest house in Maryland, based on reports that part of it was built in 1643. During the Civil War, Cross Manor hosted the Potomac Flotilla. A small adjoining park commemorates the Potomac Flotilla and the ill-fated USS Tulip (see adjacent markers above for more information).
