Cray House, Historic hall and parlor house in Stevensville, Maryland, US.

The Cray House exhibits post and plank construction with hand-sawn logs inserted into vertical corner posts, featuring a simple two-room floor plan.

Francis Stevens received a land grant for the property in 1694, and John Denny, a ship carpenter and farmer, constructed the first section in 1809.

The interior design includes beaded board partitions, baseboards, a two-piece chair rail, refined trim, and a first-floor mantel displaying early American craftsmanship.

The Kent Island Heritage Society maintains the property after receiving it as a donation from Cray's heirs in 1975, preserving it for future generations.

The building contains only one heated room on each floor and retains an original meat house, representing domestic architecture from the pre-industrial period.
