Huntingdon, also known as The Meadow, is a historic plantation house located near Boyce, Clarke County, Virginia. The original section was built about 1830, and is a two-story, five bay, stone I-house dwelling with a gable roof. A rear ell was added around 1850, making a "T"-shaped house. Also on the property are a contributing pyramidal roofed mid-19th-century smokehouse and a stone-lined ice pit with a late 19th-century, square-notched log icehouse.[3]
It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.[1]
