Around 1899, the intersection in Buckeystown included a house built around 1898 as the residence for the superintendent of the Buckingham School for Boys, south of town, now ClaggettCenter, and a house on the intersection that was one of three buildings built of stone quarried from the same vein as the church that once stood here. In 1939, Frank Lloyd Wright visited this home while passing through Buckeystown after visiting Sugarloaf Mountain, admired the south facing stone wall, and stayed for tea. North up the hill and across the creek stood white frame tannery buildings that were torn down in 1904, and at the top of the hill stood the brick home of George Buckey, now Catoctin Inn. To the right, the Inn at Buckeystown was built as a private residence in 1897 by Charles Keller, who made his fortune in the lime and stone business. The stone Methodist Episcopal Church and cemetery stood here. The church was constructed in 1824 on 1/2 acre of land donated by Ignatius Davis, with money raised by subscriptions. It measured 33 feet by 45 feet, cost $1000, had wide galleries lining three sides, and had seven benches in the center. The Civil War divided Buckeystown, and the church doors were closed when a Northern minister was appointed. According to the History of Carrollton Manor, the building was used as a library for a short time at the turn of the century. In 1905, Charles Thomas, who lived across the street in the white brick house with black shutters, dismantled the church and used the stone for foundations of houses he built for Thomas and Son Brick Yard employees and Buckeystown Packing Company employees. These ten houses were built on Buchingham Lane. The stone for the church was quarried along the Monocracy River east of Buckeystown from a rare iron-rich vein, and two stone buildings across the street and one on the right were also built of this unusual stone.
