Victorian-era Home in Cambridge Maryland
This picture taken of one of many Victorian houses on High Street in Cambridge, Maryland. The term Victorian refers to a time period and not a style. Generally the time period is 1837-1901 or during Queen Victoria reign.
The city of Cambridge was settled by English colonists in 1684 and is one of the oldest colonial cities in Maryland. To show just how historic this city is one of the houses on High Street was built in 1739. The house was originally owned by a Reverend who then sold the home to a Maryland State Senator. I would say this house is one for the ages.
