Rose Hill Farm, Historic farm estate in Upperville, United States.
Description

The farm was built in 1820 for settler Amos Denham and developed into an important agricultural center in Loudoun County. During the Civil War, Confederate troops used the granary building as a strategic observation post.
Culture
The farm reflects the deep connection between the family and agricultural life that shaped this rural area for generations. You can still see how the different buildings were arranged to support various farming tasks.
