Cumberland MD Toll Gate House on U.S. 40

This was once the primary east/west highway in the United States. This former toll house was a tourist attraction 100 years ago. The building is in disrepair but looks pretty good for its age.

 

A couple of young fellas are over by the building. There is a Havoline Motor Oil sign just behind him and down the road a bit is a gas station.

 

This building was, and is, actually located at La Vale, Maryland which is a few miles west of Cumberland.
