Ivy Neck (Whall) Residence The house was built as an artisan or slave residence.
Cumberstone Road, Cumberstone
The structure seems to be a slave, overseer or tenant house. It is one room deep with no entrance hall.
The construction indicates that this house was built between 1840 and 1870. Its features show that it is quite different from slave houses and leads one to surmise that it was originally built either as the residence of the overseer or of postbellum freedmen.
**Ivy Neck (Tenant House #2)
Cumberstone Road, Cumberstone
The house was probably constructed in the 1880s or 1890s, perhaps as a replacement for one or more of the slave cabins.
