RE: Additional Section 106 Effects Determination
Marble Quarry Road Bridge Replacement over Little Antietam Creek, Bridge No. W-6083
Washington County, Maryland
Dear Mr. Tamburrino:
Washington County, in cooperation with the Maryland State Highway Administration (SHA) and Federal
Highway Administration (FHWA), would like to continue our Section 106 consultation with you for the
Marble Quarry Road Bridge Replacement over Little Antietam Creek project. The project would widen
Bridge No. W-6083 to two lanes and reconstruct its approach roadways (see Attachment A). This would
result in the demolition of the existing bridge and replacement at its current location. The work would
also include storm water management and drainage improvements. The County proposes to use federal
monies for construction of this project; therefore the project is considered an undertaking per Section 106
of the National Historic Preservation Act as amended and its implementing regulations at 36 CFR Part
800.
in a letter dated November 19. 2009. that the undertaking would have an adverse
effect on a historic property due to the demolition of the National Register of Historic Places (NARY)
eligible Bridge No W-6083 -- Marble Quarry Road over Little Antietam Creek (MIHP No. WA -HI -120).
In addition, there would be no direct effect on any other historic properties, and that any indirect effect on
them would not be an adverse effect. Maryland Historical Trust (MHT) correspondence on January 29,
2010, concurred with this effect finding.
Based on further development of detailed engineering plans and for the purposes of making a Section 4(f)
determination, the County would now, like to request MHT's concurrence that the undertaking would
have no adverse effect on two historic properties located within the direct area of potential effects 9`h
Century Farmstead lMB3P No. WA -III -003) and Late 19" Century Brick Farmhouse (MIHP No. WA -III -
005 (see Attachment B). These farmsteads were determined eligible for the NRHP during the 2006
identification and evaluation study for this project. In accordance with 23 CFR 774.5(b), prior to making
a de minimis impact determination, FHWA must receive written concurrence from MHT in a finding of
no adverse effect for the historic properties. Where multiple Section 4(f) resources are present in the
study area, de minimis impact findings should be made for each individual resource. The County is
hereby notifying MET of FHWA's intent to make a Section 4(f) finding of de minimis impact for these
two historic properties for which there would be no adverse effect.
Mr. Tim Tamburrino
May 11, 2011
Page 2
Please note that the determination of no adverse effect, and hence, the intent for finding of de minimis
impact, only applies to the two properties described below. There would still be an overall Section 106
finding of adverse effect due to the demolition of the NRHP eligible Bridge No. W-6083.
The following is the amount of land that would be taken from the two farmsteads as proposed right-of-
ways (fee simple) and permanent easements (stormwater management):
• 19t' Century Farmstead: 9,720 square feet/0.2 acres/0. 7 % taken from the 27.32 acre
property.
• Late 19th Century Brick Farmhouse: 15,482 square feet/0.4 acres/0.5 % taken from the
87.38 acre property.
Two culverts shall also be constructed on the two farmsteads as part of this undertaking. There would be
an effect to these two farmsteads since portions would be taken and there would be potential visual
changes. However, the direct effect would only be sliver takes at the peripheries of these two historic
farmsteads, which would not change the integrity of the properties, The culvert construction would also
only be located on small areas of land located near the bridge. Visually, the NRHP eligible bridge from
1922 would be lost, and replaced with a new wider bride with wider road a roaches. Whereas the
current bridge has one ane and is 14 feet wide, the new bridge would have two lanes and be about 30 feet
w The new bridge would no longer have a center in -stream pier, and would be raised approximately
two feet above the existing bridge elevation to reduce flooding so that Marble Quarry Road could pass a
minimum 25 -year storm event. However, the existing two -span continuous concrete slab bridge is small
and modest, with no trusses and other similar prominent features that would be visually missed as part of
its replacement. Its most visually apparent character defin>'ng features are its closed concrete paneled
ara ets. The new, wider bird e would have a generall com sThleappearance to the bridge that stands
today. There ore, t e viewsheds from the historic farmsteads would not be significantly different.
In addition, although the farmsteads' contributors have clear views of the bridge area, most are located far
enough away so that their viewsheds would not change significantly. Therefore, their integrity would not
be diminished. This includes the lime kiln and the two clusters of agricultural buildings associated with
the historic properties, including the farm houses, located further east of the project area and a small
springhouse on the Late 19t' Century Brick Farmhouse property, located over 600 feet to the south of the
project area. The two proposed culverts would be located at the northern end of the archaeological
remains of the foundation and raceway for Shifler Mill (Site No. 18WA316) which is part of the Late 19th
Century Brick Farmhouse property. However, the undertaking would not physically alter the historic
millrace and would not diminish the integrity of this historic feature. Therefore, although there is an
effect, the undertaking would have no adverse effect on the two farmstead historic properties for the
purposes of making a Section 4(f) de minimis impact determination.
Please signify your concurrence by completing the signature block below and returning it to my attention.
Feel free to contact me at (240) 313-2421 or aeshleman@washco-md.net should you have any questions.
Thank you for your guidance and we look forward to continue working with you on this project. By copy
of this letter, other consulting parties identified below are bein g invited to comment on this determination.
We would like to receive MHT concurrence and any consulting party comments by June 10, 2011, which
is thirty (30) days after the date of this letter.

Understanding FHWA's intent to make de minimis Section 4(f) findings, the Maryland State Historic
Preservation Officer (SHPO) concurs that the historic characteristics of the 19"' Century Farmstead
(MIHP No. WA -III -003) and Late l9`h Century Brick Farmhouse (MIHP No. WA -III -005) will not be
diminished by this undertaking, and thus there would be no adverse effect to these specific properties.
There would still be an overall Section 106 finding of adverse effect due to the demolition of the NRHP
eligible Bridge No. W-6083.

7. Description
Ringgold Historic District
Washington County, MD
The Ringgold Historic District is a primarily residential historic district of forty-three acres located in the
,.T
unincorporated village of Ringgold in the northwestern quadrant of Election District No. 14 (the Ringgold District),
in rural northern Washington County, Maryland, approximately twelve miles northeast of the county seat of Hagers-
town and less than one-half mile south of the Mason-Dixon Line and the Franklin County, Pennsylvania border. The
district includes portions of Barkdoll Street (Maryland Route 847), Midvale Street, and Misty Meadow Road. The
Ringgold District contains a total of 46 resources, 42 of which (90%) contribute to the character of the district and
4 (10%) are non-contributing. Non-contributing resources are buildings erected outside the c. 1825-c. 1920 Period
of Significance of the district and others, the extent of whose alteration has resulted in a loss of historic architectural
integrity and their classification as non-contributing resources. All of the properties in the district are buildings except
the Springfield Cemetery (Resource No. 31), which is a contributing site within the context of the nomination.
Approximately seventy-five percent of the resources in the district pre -date 1900, approximately fifteen percent of the
resources were constructed between 1900 and the end of the Period of Significance c. 1920, and the remaining approxi-
mately ten percent are of modem construction and are non-contributing to the character of the district. The predomi-
nant character of the district is that of a rural western Maryland hamlet located atop a hill overlooking a spacious valley
and consisting primarily of a single linear thoroughfare.
The architecture of the Ringgold Historic District consists principally of modest vernacular residences of two
stories in her t, located on either side of Barkdoll Street- and on parts of Midvale Street and Misty Meadow Road.' A
relatively small number of more pretentious homes represent a higher degree of sophistication than is seen in most of
the architectural resources of the district. The vast maiorityof the district's architecture is of wood construction. Most
of the homes retain ft porches of varying scales and forms along with associated domestic outbuildings including
sheds and garages. Larger dependencies are included in the resource count, while smaller outbuildings (sheds, small
automobile garages, etc.) are treated as low -scale landscape features and are not represented in the count. The district
retains integrity in each of its seven qualities • location, design, setting, materials workmanship, feeling and association.
The building lots of the Ringgold Historic District are irregular in plan, and reflect the patterns of traditional,
Manned, and unregulated subdivision of land generations prior to the onset of uniform formal subdivision require -
Alterations to Maryland Route 64 include a large cut and the bypassing of much of Ringgold, which left a portion
of the community south of Route 64, including the District 14 School, a Colonial Revival -style brick school building, which
appears to be minimally altered but is outside the district, separated by the expanse of the Route 64 cut. The school appears
to meet National Register eligibility requirements as an individual property under Criteria A and C.

ments. The topography rises considerably from Route 418 (which bypasses the. district) to Barddoll Road, which is
the principal north -south thoroughfare in the district. Property setback lines are irregular throughout the district and
landscaping includes lawns both large and small.
The bull ' sin the district are rectilinear ar in form and generally vary in height between one -and -one-half and
two -and -one-half stories. Most buildings are roofed with laterally -oriented gable roo s, clad in standing -seam metal or
in asphalt shingles. Some historic chimneys have been retained, while others have been removed in the course of
retrofitting heating systems and replacing roofs. Fenestration is nearly exclusively flat-topped; in several instances, a
pointed -arch window suggests design influence from the Gothic Revival style of architecture; for the most part, win-
dows are generally sparsel ornamented; some multi -light historic sash has been retained. The majority of the buildings
in the district rest on substantial foundations of coursed rock -faced limestone.
As noted above, the architectural character of the Ringgold Historic -District is primarily vernacular, with most
buildings executed without reference to any particular formal building style. Some traditional house types are found
in the district, including side -passage single-plle homes and central -passage double -pile houses to which have been
appended later additions. Some properties exhibit more design sophistication than others. Among these are 14510,
14321, 14527, and 14537 Barkdoll Road (Resource Nos.13, 24, 31, ands 34, respectively), which are Federal -style
houses. The Federal -style homes are of two stories, some with three -bay facades and others with five -bay arrangements.
All are of brick construction, and some employ Flemish bond brick treatment while others are of common bond. One
Italianate property is in Ringgold; it is a two-story brick building which appears to have been a commercial property
which has been converted to residential use. Vernacular adaptations of the Gothic Revival style are located at 14528,
14432, and 14410 Barkdoll Road (Resource Nos. 7, 14, and 18, respectively). The Gothic Revival influence is seen
in centered gables on facades and pointed -arched pedimental windows. The Colonial Revival style is represented in a
vernacular adaptation seen at 14420 Barkdoll Road (Resource No. 17), which is two-story wood residence with a
centered gable on the facade and a Palladian window in the pediment of the gable. One Bungalow is in the district
(14541 Barkdoll Road; Resource No. 35) and an American Foursquare is located at 22901 Midvale Road (Resource
No. 22).
Near the center of the Ringgold Historic District is the only contributing site, the Springfield Cemetery
source No. 31), which lies along a hillside east of Barkdoll Road, Near the foot of this hill immediately inside the
district's eastern boundary, is the River Brethren Church Meeting House, an 1871 vernacular church building of brick
construction, with a laterally -oriented gable roof and five -bay lateral elevations punctuated by flat-topped fenestration

Ringgold Historic District
Washington County, MD
As noted in the introductory paragraph, the Ringgold Historic District retains historic and architectural integ-
rity. Although modest�cale and detailing, the overall character of the district is intact and represents the early
growth and`maturity of this hamlet throughout its Period of Significance. Very little demolition has occurred and only
a very small number of newer buildings —modern residences and garages -have been built within the boundaries of the
nominated area. Alterations to buildings within the district include the application of non -historic siding and the
installation of replacement windows. These alterations are dispersed throughout the district and do not detract signifi-
cantly from the ability of the nominated area to reflect its appearance throughout the Period of Significance.
Viewed in its entirety, the Ringgold Historic District is an architecturally -cohesive settlement which grew up
Jng Barkdoll Road after the initial 1825 settlement of the community by pioneer Joseph Creager. The nominated
area retains integrity and contains forty modestly -scaled historic residential properties, one historic church, and one
"contributing site.
The following properties lie within the Ringgold Historic District. The numbering corresponds to the district
map which was submitted with the nomination documents. All properties are assumed to contribute to the character
of the district except those after whose description an "NC" appears; these properties are non-contributing to the
character of the district, either because they date from outside the Period of Significance of the district or because their
extent of alteration has significantly compromised their individual character with reference to the district. The dates
of construction are generally approximate and are based upon physical examination, upon the scant written documenta-
tion which exists for the district, and upon oral interviews conducted in the course of the preparation of the National
Register documents.
