Scott's Old Fields



Scott's Old Fields was once the property of the Scott family and is now the offices of Bel Air Memorial Gardens. Aquila Scott, who founded the town of Bel Air, Maryland, was the original owner. His grandson Otho Scott, a prominent Harford County attorney, built the large frame house (pictured) in the 1820's. During the 1870's it was a girl's school.
