Stover–Winger Farm, also known as Tayamentasachta, is a historic farm complex located at Antrim Township in Franklin County, Pennsylvania. The house was built in the 1840s or 1850s, and is a two-story, four-bay, "T"-shaped, brick dwelling. It has a two-story, three-bay brick cased log wing. It has a one-story, shed-roofed porch along three sides. Also on the property are a contributing brick beehive oven, brick end bank barn built in 1849 and rebuilt in 1876 after a fire, frame wagon shed, and metal "Stover Wind Engine". The farm was purchased by the Greencastle-Antrim School District in 1966. The property includes the spring named Tayamentasachta, a favorite camp site for the Delaware Indians.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.[1]
