Summary

This report is a Maryland Inventory of Historic Properties Archeological Site Survey, Basic Data Report for the site T11, 18CH223. This site is located on the east side of Cedar Point Neck in a wooded area 1km north of Upper Cedar Point. It is located adjacent to the old access road to Cedar Point Farm.

This site represents the remains of a frame tenant house which is located adjacent to the old Cedar Point Farm access road and hence was probably associated with that farm. A local informant notes that a Mr. John Queen resided in this home during the early 20th century, and that it was abandoned during the 1920s. Today the site is marked by a series of comer foundation piers and a central brick rubble pile, probably a chimney fall. The former structure measured about 12x18' and was built with sawn lumber and cut nails. Approximately 50’ southwest of the house site is an associated dump scattered over approximately 1000 square feet. Visible artifacts dated to the early 20th century.
