Maple Hall is a term that refers to multiple distinct entities, most notably a historic house in Virginia listed on the National Register of Historic Places, as well as numerous university residence halls across the United States and other establishments.
Historic House (Rockbridge County, Virginia)
Maple Hall is a historic home located near Lexington in Rockbridge County, Virginia, USA. The house was built in 1855 and is a two-story, three-bay, Greek Revival style brick dwelling on an English basement. It features a hipped roof, a rear ell with a gable roof, and a two-story pedimented front portico. The property also includes a contributing two-story brick building that likely dates to the 1820s and a small log outbuilding.
The home was purchased by John Singleton, then owner of a boarding school in South Carolina, in April 2021.
