The exterior of the Carroll Mansion is an updated version of traditional Maryland architecture adapt e d to an urban setting . Built of brick , its basic form is two stori es above a ground floor , a p<.i.vilion f.r.011t, <md cnc"l-r1i •bJes .r.ising :into c himne ys, reflecting the proportions of e ighteenth-century Marylund-style Over this t raditionalism is applied a thin veneer of architec­ .. tural detail typical of Baltimore during the first quarter of the nineteenth century . Of particu lar interest on the street facad e s (south and west) laid in Flemish bond , is the use of recessed panels between the first and second floor window openings . Moulded wood panels m accentuate the five front (south), bays , which face Lombard m Street, while recessed brick panels are used on the three bays of the west , Front Street, elevation . This use of facade panel reflects contemporary late Federal or Regency houses in Balti­ z more, such as "Homewood" and the houses on Pascault Row . The marble belt course of the front facade, between the ground -i floor and the first floor windows , is matched in h eight by the ;u short parapet s upporting the wrought iron railing of the one­ c s tory , central porch balcony. Reconstructed during the 1965 n " restoration , the design of the porch was based on existing -i foundations, the marble threshold , the sandstone Ionic pilas­ ters and architrave of the door surro und, which has paneled 0 reveals and an eight-panel door, and the existence of the jib door opening out from t he first floor stair hall . Thus , the restored porch, with its new sandstone Ionic columns set on a .. marble base the height of the original marble water table , de­ fines the main entrance into the ground floor which tragition­ ally provided business rooms . .. The conunon bond rear facade (north) is characterized by the synunetrical placement of the two doorways of the ground floor which open into the north yard. These doors from the "Family Dining Room" and the hall to the north alternate with the win­ dow openings , all the same head-height. The yard itself originally contained an attached, two-story , shed-roofed kitche wing, now demolished. At present , a modern brick and wrought '·· iron fence encloses a modern landscaped garden. The masonry openings of each facade, except the blank conunon bond east party-wall , have marble sills and brick jack arches . Typically , the window glazing consists of six-over-six sash, which are elongated at the first floor. At the Front Street facade, the window openings of the ground and first floor pri­ vate rooms have been restored to their original false - ----- ---------,...-------------' (See Continuation Sheet) - - - -----·------ ________ ,, -------- ------------- _________ •I B-2 ~l~~if:~CANCE ______-_- _-_- - -------.==--~~- --:_---=- --------------. ~ Pt FHOC (Ch<' < lc Ont' or /'tlorc• a~ Approµd11to) ,. 0 Prc-Columbion ' 0 16rl> Ccnrury CJ l81h Ccnlury CJ 201h Ccnlury 0 1511> Ccnlury 0 17rl> Ccnlury ($ 19rl> Cenlury I s<> EC r Ft C o AT E l S I ( If A pplic ..l?lc t<nd Known)--- C • l--B.::i:..::_l--=l:..:8:.,;-1:::..::2-=.-=.-=.-:=_____ __________, --!

  • The National Survey of Historic Sites and Buildings Chestertown Historic District, Chestertown,Marviand Chestertown's Beginning
    UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE INTERIOR NATIONAL PARK SERVICE WASHINGTON, D.C. The National Survey of Historic Sites and Buildings Chestertown Historic District, Chestertown,Marviand Chestertown's beginning dates from 1698 when the court house for Kent County was erected on the bank of the Chester River at the future site of the town. In 1706 streets were laid out for a town and in 1708 the small settlement, then known as New Town, was made a Port of Entry for Cecil, Kent, and Queen Anne counties of Maryland. New Town, however, failed to grow and the leading tobacco port on the Eastern Shore during the first half of the 18th century was Oxford, located in Talbot County on the Tred Avon River. Founded in 1683, Oxford was for some time a close rival of Annap*olis as the busiest port in the province. Chestertown's growth as a major port began in 1730, when its owner, Siaon Wilraer, resurvcyed his land and laid out the exist** ing gridiron plan of streets and house lots. From about 1750- 1790 the town flourished as the chief tobacco and wheat shipping port of Maryland*s Eastern Shore. During this period merchants and planters constructed fine Georgian brick town houses in the town* Some 50 of these structures still stand* ******** NSHSB: 12/22/69 C W S Location: Kent .Coizat^ Chestertown.
