Monocacy National Battlefield comprises 1,647 acres of farmland, forest and riparian areas a few miles south of Frederick, Maryland in the Monocacy River valley. The park encompasses six component properties including the Baker, Best, Lewis, Thomas, and Worthington Farms, as well as the Gambrill Mill and House. The architectural styles of the structures in the park exhibit the variety of cultural traditions associated with agriculture in western Maryland. Dwelling houses, forebay barns, the unique stone barn on the Best Farm (L'Hermitage) and the Georgian style of the Thomas Farm (Araby) main house all reflect the mix of Pennsylvania German, French, Caribbean, and Tidewater English influences on the area.
