Description and history
The house and its immediate grounds housed the "Boonsboro Pottery" from 1868, owned by John E. Bowman. The pottery closed by 1908, succumbing to mass-produced materials. The building is now the headquarters of the Boonsboro Historical Society.[2]
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on April 29, 1977.[1]
