History
7
Scott Street was once lined with buildings on both sides. On one side stood Rumney's Tavern, the Brown Carpenter Shop, and the Brown House, while the other side held a number of structures, including commercial enterprises such as Pierpont's Tavern. The original Anne Arundel County Courthouse, dating from 1685 to 1695, also faced Scott Street. Around the corner to the left were a tailor's shop and a corset and stay maker's shop. The current park entrance parallels Mackelfresh Street, and ongoing archaeology and archival research continue to build a more complete picture of the roughly fifty dwellings and businesses and the people who lived and worked here.
