Notes
  • Significance: "Liriodendron" is a 108-acre estate consisting of a Renaissance-Revival mansion and a carriage house designed in 1897 by the architectural firm of Wyatt and Nolting for Dr. Howard A. Kelly of Johns Hopkins Hospital. Also on the estate is a ca. 1835 farmhouse, a bank barn which probably dates from the same period, a farmer's board and batten cottage (ca. 1850), and numerous outbuildings, including a corn crib, two ice houses, and a tool shed. The barn and carriage house are particularly important elements of the Liriodendron Estate. The size and craftsmanship of the barn is unique in the region, as this type of frame and stone bank barn has disappeared entirely from the Bel Air area. The barn has hand-hewn framing members and the rear overhang of the upper level is supported on full tree trunks. Attached to the east of the barn is the carriage house, also a frame bank barn on a stone foundation. Eyebrow dormers and novelty siding reveal its turn-of-the-century construction date. These two structures illustrate the evolution of the 19th-century Harford County farm into a summer estate.
