Lockwood House Cultural Landscape Report: Harpers Ferry National Historical Park, Harpers Ferry, West Virginia. Part 1: History, Existing Conditions and Analysis. Part 2: Treatment Exploration and Recommendations
The Lockwood House was constructed in 1847-1848 on a previous building site to serve as the United States Armory Paymasters Quarters. Situated on top of a topographical landform called Camp Hill, the property overlooks the Lower Town of Harpers Ferry. This important site commands a panoramic vista of the confluence of the Potomac and Shenandoah Rivers in the Blue Ridge Mountains. Shortly after the construction of the Lockwood House, Harpers Ferry, and in some cases the Camp Hill area, witnessed several significant events in American History including John Browns Raid, the American Civil War, and the founding of Storer College, one of the first African American colleges in the nation. From heavily or lightly used, to lushly vegetated or trampled under many feet, the Lockwood House landscape on Camp Hill has evolved through time to its present condition.
