Strand Millas and Rock Spring
Strand Millas and Rock Spring, Historic colonial estate in Montchanin, Delaware.
The property includes a 2.5-story quarried stone dwelling with colonial architecture and an adjacent springhouse situated on 12.8 acres of land.
The Gregg family, who emigrated from Ireland in 1682, constructed Strand Millas in 1701 and expanded it during the 1760s with additional rooms on each floor.
The estate represents early Quaker settlement patterns in Delaware, following William Penn's architectural style and incorporating natural water sources into the property design.
The property contains two separate structures: the main Strand Millas house and the Rock Spring dwelling, positioned near a natural water source.
The name Strand Millas derives from an industrial town near Belfast, Ireland, connecting the property to early Irish immigration patterns in colonial Delaware.
