Charley's House illustrates the almost extinct dwellings of the early 1800's that housed slaves and servants on Maryland's Eastern Shore. It is believed to have been built as slave quarters and later became part of the African American community in Chestertown. This one story with loft duplex was the home of Charley Williams, its last occupant, and was moved from Court Street in Chestertown, Maryland, in 1974 to its present location on the grounds of the Kent Museum.
