Mount Clare, the oldest colonial structure of Baltimore, was built in 1754 on the estate known as Georgia Plantation by Charles Carroll, Barrister (1723–1783), one of the foremost patriots of the Revolution, author of the Maryland Declaration of Rights, and active in preparing the first constitution of the state. At this house, Washington, Lafayette, and other prominent figures of the Revolutionary period were guests on their journeys between the Northern and Southern Colonies.
