ROBINSON HOUSE


Built in 1723, the 'Robinson House' is located at the junction of Naamans Road and The Kings Highway (now Philadelphia Pike) in Claymont, Delaware, in the United States. It was built on the site of the original settlement on Naaman’s Creek. The Block House, which stands a few feet northeast of the ''Robinson House'', is the only remaining building from the original 1654 settlement.
