This 2-½ story gray fieldstone house, circa 1790, is the former home of Judge Hugh M. Morris, a Delaware native, respected attorney and distinguished federal judge. 

Delaware’s Division of Parks and Recreation acquired the property in 1998 and made it a part of White Clay Creek State Park. 

Today, the estate is available to accommodate special events such as weddings, receptions, showers and birthday parties, as well as business gatherings.  Guests will enjoy the charm of this historic home and the serenity of the grounds and nearby pond.

The Judge Morris Estate is a beautiful place for a hike, leisurely stroll, house tour, or special program. Currently the house is decorated in the style of the late-1930's, the period when Judge Hugh M. Morris completed renovations to his newly-purchased farm house.
