[1]Added to NRHP: August 25, 1978 The Commodore Joshua Barney House is a historic home located at Savage, Howard County, Maryland, United States. It has three sections: the original 2 1⁄2-story brick house built about 1760, a 2-story frame addition built in 1941, and a one-story frame addition to the west, built in 1946. The interior of the house was altered during the 1940s when it was used as a boys' school, and about 1960 when it was converted into apartments. Its significance is tied to Commodore Joshua Barney, who was a hero of the American Revolutionary War and the War of 1812 and retired to his home in Elkridge, Maryland.[2] It is now operated as a bed and breakfast inn.
The Commodore Joshua Barney House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978.[1]
