Stone Hill Historic District is a national historic district in Baltimore, Maryland, United States. It is a complex of workers’ housing constructed about 1845-1847, consisting of seven gridded blocks overlooking the Jones Falls. The district comprises 21 granite duplexes, a granite Superintendent’s House, and a granite service building (now converted to a duplex), and all associated with Mount Vernon Mills. It is one of the original mill villages along the Jones Falls developed to house textile mill workers and remained under mill ownership, from 1845 to 1925.[2]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2001.[1]
