There are many surviving examples of early European pioneer structures along the Blue Ridge Parkway. All are 19th-century log cabins illustrating the occasional isolated existence of mountain residents and the efforts of the original park planners to save log structures as opposed to other types of larger farm houses they found. The Jesse Brown Farmstead (Milepost 272.5) consists of a cabin and spring house. Built by Brown before 1840 and moved 1/2 a mile to the current location in 1905.
