The James Martin House, built c. 1790, is the only remaining representative of a gambrel-roof timber frame dwelling on the lower Eastern Shore of Maryland. Two other buildings of similar form, Pemberton Hall and are brick buildings. The interior retains much of its original raised-panel woodwork.[2]
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1996.[1]
