The Rising Sun Inn is a one-and-a-half-version brick and wood-frame building nestled alongside Generals Highway in Crownsville.

The home was opened as a tavern in 1784 by Baldwin's son, war long-serving Lt. Henry Baldwin, one of the early owners. After his passing at age 40, the edifice went through numerous owners. By the late 1800s, it was in use accustomed to as a barn for grain storage. Mice and rats gnawed away much of its internal wood trim and moulding.
