Notes
  • Significance: The Birdwood Ice house is one of the four service buildings that surround a pre-Civil War Neo-Classic residence. Built by William Garth, the main house and the four outbuildings were erected between 1818 and 1830 on land that was part of the 1734 David Lewis Crown Grant. Constructed by some of Thomas Jefferson's workmen, the Birdwood estate is an excellent example of Virginia plantation architecture and planning.
