                                                              Exeter is one of the oldest remaining structures in the south-

                                                              across the road on the Marshy Hope Creek.
                                                              Robert and Mary B. Holt of Federalsburg purchased the house
                                                              on 408 Old Denton Road in 1967 and over time restored the

               Any type, Any Condition                        Register of Historic Places in 1978. A major renovation project

                                                              began in late 2002. The building never has had indoor plumb-
