This spring house on the original Shriver Farm
at Conewago, near Littlestown, has been dated to 1750 or
earlier by architectural experts. If correct, it may well
be one of the oldest structures still standing from the
early 18th Century in all of “Digges Choice”.
Andrew Shriver paid John Digges with 100 pairs of slave
shoes for his first 100 acres.
