The domestic and agricultural cooplex is c~sed of six structures: a frame house, stone and timber frame bank barn, corn crib, _.wel !house, log and frame shed; and a concrete block garage. These bui !dings relate to the operty•s use throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries in the harvesting and production of tobacco, grain and livestock. The cooplex has undergone serious deterioration. The c.1835 frame and log dwelling was modified substantially during the 1950s and recent deterioration has resulted in the loss of such character-defining features as doors, windows, and interior finishes. The extensive deterioration also extends to the agricultural buildings. Though archival research indicates that the Shipley House property was a family farm that followed the 19th century regi anal agricultural development pattern, the cooplex of buildings no longer retain sufficient integrity to illustrate agricultural cooplexes or building practices from the 19th and early 20th centuries. MHT concurred that the property was not eligible for the MD Register. Documentation on the property/district is presented in: Information taken from R. C.
