Old Dry Road

History
Old Dry Road, also known as the Staudt Farm, is a historic farmstead in Lower Heidelberg Township, Pennsylvania, within the Blue Marsh Lake Recreation Area. First settled in 1744, it preserves an older home-and-farm complex that reflects rural Pennsylvania life from the eighteenth century onward. Notable surviving buildings include a late eighteenth-century speicher, a three-story banked log structure used for storage and food preservation, and a Georgian-influenced log dwelling dated between 1770 and 1805. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1978, the farm also serves as a living history museum with educational programs and special-event access.
