Lombardy Hall, Historic house in Fairfax, Delaware, United States
The stone residence at 1611 Concord Pike features a 2.5-story structure with a slate gable roof, brick chimneys, and a five-bay wide main facade.
Gunning Bedford Jr., a delegate to the Constitutional Convention and signer of the U.S. Constitution, purchased this property in 1785 and expanded it.
The interior maintains original wooden elements, including paneling, cornice molding, staircases, and a Federal style fireplace mantel in the main ballroom.
A local Masonic lodge has owned the property since 1968, managing its restoration and preservation as a National Historic Landmark.
Bedford delivered influential speeches during the Philadelphia Convention that led to equal state representation in the United States Senate.
