Historical/Interpretive Information/Exhibits
These rock walls mark the site of a house built in the late 1790's by the Patowmac Company. Intended for the Canal Superintendent and his family, the house took so long to build that only one of the superintendents ever lived in it. Later it was occupied by the canal lock-tenders.
