  ## History and description
  
  The two-story vernacular Georgian style house features a coursed ashlar façade using local ironstone. According to the nomination form, the house was earlier thought to have been built by George Morgan Sr. c. 1730. Recent research indicates that it was built by his son, George Morgan Jr., sometime between c. 1760 and 1775, noted as c. 1765 by the nomination.
  
  ## Museum and historic village
  
  In September 1980, Washington Township acquired the Olde Stone House and 6.2 acres (2.5 ha) from the FPA corporation. In December, fire caused serious damage to the house. The Washington Township Historical Society restored it by 1986. The house is now a historic house museum operated by the Washington Township Historic Preservation Commission. Four other historic buildings from the township have been moved here to form the Olde Stone House Historic Village. They are the Turnersville Post Office (1864), the Bunker Hill Presbyterian Church (1869), the Charles Quay Farmhouse (1825), and the Blackwood Railroad Station (1891).
