Burleigh, or Burleigh Manor, is a historic home located at Ellicott City, Howard County, Maryland, built on a 2,300-acre (930 ha) estate.[2] It is a Federal-style brick dwelling built about 1810, laid in Flemish bond. Also on the landscaped grounds are a stone smokehouse; a much-altered log, stone, and frame "gatehouse" or "cottage," and another log outbuilding, as well as an early-20th century bathhouse, swimming pool, and tennis court. The probable builder was Colonel Rezin Hammond (1745–1809), who bequeathed the manor and 4,500 acres (1,800 ha) to [3] his grandnephew Denton Hammond (1785–1813) and his wife Sara who lived there until her death in 1832.[4][5] In 1914 the estate was owned by Mary Hanson Hammond with land totaling over 1,000 acres (400 ha) including the outbuildings and slave quarters.[6] In 1935 the Estate was subdivided to 600 acres (240 ha) and purchased by Charles McAlpin Pyle, Grandson of industrialist David Hunter McAlpin.[7] It is currently operated as a livestock shelter.[8] In the late 1960s the property was owned by Mrs G. Dudley Iverson IV.[9]

Centennial Lane was built in 1876 as a shortcut through Burliegh Manor property between Clarksville and Ellicott City.[10]

In November 1976 the county executive, Edward L. Cochran, commissioned a $35,000 survey by Resource Management Associates Inc. to analyze 600 acres (240 ha) of the manor property for a landfill site at a set contract price of $2,250,000, but a task force recommendation led to a site selection in Marriottsville.[11][12][13] In 1979 A historical survey was conducted, listing the owner as Maple Lawn developer Stewart J Greenbaum.[5] In 1982 Burleigh was listed on the National Register of Historic Places.[1] In 1987, the wife of former County Executive Cochran listed Burleigh Manor and 15 surrounding acres for sale for $750,000.[14]
